Well, in my opinion old "provides" solution was fine (for "ocaml"
package only, not for libraries) but wasn't working with autobuilders.

If a simple "empty" package provided in this way solve the problem it's
ok for me. Ok, it's an hack, but we are hackers :-)
Seriously, for the moment I'm happy with answers on libraries, ocaml
package deps are a bit less important for the moment. Let's focus on
testing transition.

Anyway I can't see real motivations from you against this solution
(assuming that I've understood it correctly cause I haven't yet seen the
ocaml packages pointed by Sven). "It's an hack" isn't a real motivation
for me.

Cheers.
