There are actually 2 different lines of sexplib: "sexplib" and
"sexplib310". The former was the old line initially created by Markus
Mottl, the latter is the one currently maintained (still by him) under
the hood of Jane St. AFAIU "sexplib310" has been ported to CamlP4 3.10.
What we have packaged in Debian is in fact "sexplib310", I chose that
name to be consistent with upstream tarballs. If in the future upstream
will drop 310 we can do the same in Debian.
Note anyhow that this is just the source package name (something users
are not faced with), the binary package name is "libsexplib-camlp4-dev".
Cheers.
