problems compiling advi into bytecode without -custom
Hello,
I am just working on updating the advi package to the new upstream version
1.8 and encountered a problem with compiling into bytecode. I tried to
remove the "-custom" flag, but that makes compilation fail, with:
File "_none_", line 1, characters 0-1:
Error: Error while linking graphicsY11.cmo:
The external function `caml_gr_unset_cursor' is not available
While it compiles fine when I leave he original -custom flag. Any ideas
what is going on here? Missing compiler flags? A bug in the camlimages
package? Something else?
To reproduce, fetch the advi tree from our git repository, and go into the
branch experimental. Then, add in the file debian/patches/series the
line "byte-compilation-no-custom" (the patch itself is already there),
quilt push -a, and compile with "fakeroot debian/rules build". The
bytecode executable is produced also on native archs, so you do not
have to hide your /usr/bin/ocamlopt.
Any help will be appreciated -Ralf.
