Well James Troup contacted me too as you can see from the To: field of the mail :-) > autobuilders, and should best find another solution, or maybe someone > else could approach James about the subject, maybe someone who had > problems with his packages also, and try to get to the heart of what the > problem really is. James was kind of saying that i am uninformed and that I've already sent him a mail asking for more information on the subject, basically about the reason behind his mail, because a "please don't use virtual build dependencies" message isn't really self-explaining :) I'm still waiting for an answer ... I suggest to wait just another day or two and then go for another revolution getting rid of all virtual build dependencies, both on ocaml package and between libraries. BTW, wait just a bit more patching the policy with my latest patch, we will probably have to restate hit in term of versioned dependencies for the 'build-dep' side.
