Bug#322722: ocaml-nox: missing dependency on gcc (and binutils?)
Package: ocaml-nox
Version: 3.08.3-3
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 3.5
Hi,
ocamlc and ocamlopt need at least gcc and ld to work correctly (there
are also references to nm and objcopy), but the package doesn't declare
this dependency. This missing dependency has of course not been
detected because gcc is build-essential, but I think it should be
declared nevertheless.
Cheers,
Julien Cristau
