Package: ocaml-bitstring
Version: 2.0.0-5
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
When I use the bitmatch syntax provided by the bitstring library,
compiling my code always fails with
Parse error: ":" expected after [patt] (in [patt_field])
The same happens when using the source package and trying to compile the
examples, so it is not an error of usage.
It turns out that the Fedora folks also had this issue, they included a
patch which I'll attach here that fixes the problem (taken directly from
the Fedora CVS). I checked out the debian source package from git, added
the patch and rebuilt - applied perfectly and the package worked
flawlessly.
So this seems to be a general upstream error and this patch is
necessary until upstream releases a fixed version.
regards,
Marek
