Already done (see my patch), but this does not solve the problem of users that upgrade to new packages that no longer need dir in /var/lib/ocaml/ld.conf. These user actualy have installed old packages built with an old (buggy) version of dh_ocamlld. Hand erase them in postinst work, but we need to keep these settings in postinst forever ... A centralized solution IMO is better. Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli - undergraduate student of CS @ Univ.
