apt-get upgrade &>/tmp/log & ; tail -f /tmp/log

Well, the idea was :
o ocaml is on hold because you have installed libs.
o if you go ahead and install ocaml by hand (apt-get install ocaml),
all libs will be removed.
What exactly did you do ?
1) you did an apt-get install ocaml, and it did not install ocaml, but
removed the libs ?
2) you then ran apt-get upgrade and ocaml-base and lablgtk where
installed ?
3) you ran apt-get upgrade again and ocaml is installed (as well as the
rest of the missing stuff ?
Has anyone else experienced such problems ?
