The META files problem is secondary and packages work fine without.
My objective is to get cameleon built against ocaml 3.07 as soon

So no change in packages means no new bug to deal with.

I think that you don't need to make any change right now.

Please leave manpages alone. Cameleon needs to be ready before 15th October.
