Well, and then we will start the thread about the naming scheme not
being coherent with the library one, and we should rename all libraries
as ocaml-<name>-lib and ocaml-<name>-dev ?

BTW, please don't forget to use correct dependencies with every ocaml
package that use bytecode code, even if it is standalone code, it should
depend on ocaml-base-3.06, not some other strange stuff. Especially all
older (well those in woody at least) such package that do not have both
the ocaml-base (>= 3.04) and ocaml-base (<< 3.05) dependencies are
_BROKEN_. But then they are in woody, nothing much we can do on this.

BTW2, ... about ocaml 3.06 and testing, well i wrote mail to
debian-devel and was ignored, does anyone else have an idea of who i
should pester next ? Can someone fill build reports against the buildd
or such ? Well, i will try writing to the appropriate porter list to see
what did happen.
