Re: [Caml-list] [ANNOUNCE] otags reloaded 3.12.1 for OCaml 3.12.1
There is an otags package in Debian, but it dates back to 3.09.3.3
(2008, it seems).
This is the old version, which I took over from Monin and
Alvarado and which was based on old Camlp4 of 3.09. I purposely
inserted special guards in that version to ensure that it would
only compile with OCaml 3.09. But some Debian folks removed these
guards... ;-)
I am distributing now a complete rewrite, which is based on the
new camlp4.
Would you be interested in updating/maintaining it?
I was about to contact debian-ocaml-maint. I wanted to ask, what
would be the best way (from your point of view) to update the
otags package in Debian.
I can simply package it on my own and upload to debian.sponsors.
But maybe it would be simpler if I join your group and reuse your
infrastructure for building ocaml packages? Of course, I don't
know, if there is any infrastructure that would simplify
packaging something simple such as otags.
Bye,
Hendrik
