Bug#532970: jocaml and "use topfind"



Package: jocaml
Version: 3.11.0-3
Severity: important


I tried to use findlib from the jocaml toplevel. Not very surprisingly,
it does not work. As it has a major effect on the usability of jocaml's
toploop, I decided to flag the issue as important. It would perhaps be
a good idea to solve it by making a dummy jocaml-findlib package which
would symlink a /usr/lib/jocaml/3.11.0/topfind to the topfind script
for ocaml. Or something like that... But maybe that is simplistic.

yziquel@seldon:~$ jocaml
        JoCaml version 3.11.0

# #use "topfind";;
File "/usr/lib/ocaml/3.11.0/topfind", line 1, characters 0-1:
Error: The files /usr/bin/jocaml and /usr/lib/ocaml/3.11.0/toploop.cmi
       make inconsistent assumptions over interface Outcometree
