ocaml-ldconf problems on Woody
Hi
PROBLEM 1:
After I add
/usr/local/lib/ocaml
/usr/local/lib/ocaml/contrib
to /etc/ocaml/ld.conf and run ocaml-ldconf, the lines still do not appear in
/usr/lib/ocaml/ld.conf; doing
ocaml-ldconf -a /usr/local/lib/ocaml/contrib
works around this though
PROBLEM 2:
I installed pcre-ocaml in /usr/local/lib/ocaml/contrib :
$ ls -l /usr/local/lib/ocaml/contrib
total 132k
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 11k Dec 25 07:56 dllpcre_stubs.so
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 6.2k Dec 25 07:56 libpcre_stubs.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 45k Dec 25 07:56 pcre.a
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 24k Dec 25 07:56 pcre.cma
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 11k Dec 25 07:56 pcre.cmi
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 532 Dec 25 07:56 pcre.cmxa
-rw-r--r-- 1 root staff 23k Dec 25 07:56 pcre.mli
and added the directory to ld.conf as described above. However,
doing
# #load "pcre.cma";;
fails unless I use the full path. Similar problems are encountered with ocamlc
and ocamlopt when a file containing "open Pcre" is given to them. I know this
can be solved with a "-L" option, but I thought the point of using
ocaml-ldconf was in not having to use "-L" and full paths.
Is this a bug or am I doing something incorrectly?
Thanks,
and Happy Holiday Season,
Oleg
