Hello,

Just as a side note to the previous mail :

If we go for the move of the ocaml libdir from /usr/lib/ocaml to
/usr/lib/ocaml/3.06, to ease the transition phase while we all rebuild
our library packages, it think we should modify the ocaml-3.06 and
ocaml-base-3.06 virtual packages to ocaml-3.06.1 and ocaml-base-3.06.1
or something such, what do you think ?

This way, it could even be possible to have the old ocaml 3.06 and the
new ocaml 3.06 in //.

And one problem that i didn't speak about, and that need sovled, is how
to handle the parts of ocaml that install outside of the libdir. These
are basically the binaries (just append -3.06 to the old ones when a new
release is made) and the manpages (same solution).

Do anyone see another solution to this, or other such files i did miss ?

Friendly,

Sven Luther
