It isn't. ocamlopt is only available on architectures where a native-code compiler is available, which is not the case for m68k, mipsen and s390. > > So, the question is, why isn't ocamlopt in the ocaml-nox package for s390? > Is there any workaround, or simply cameleon won't work in that architecture? > ocamlopt isn't there because building to native code is not supported on this architecture. cameleon should use ocamlc when ocamlopt isn't available. Unfortunately, cameleon seems to use a complicated ocaml script for its configuration. Julien
