Bug#815577: libcurl-ocaml: ocurl package is very out of date and lacks Lwt support
Package: libcurl-ocaml
Version: 0.5.3-2+b2
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
I've had some reports of 0install hanging on Debian/Ubuntu. I suspect this is
due to the very old version of ocurl found there:
https://github.com/0install/0install/issues/54#issuecomment-186845945
Debian currently provides ocurl 0.5.3, which lacks support for Lwt. If ocurl
could be upgraded to the latest version (0.7.6) then I could remove the hacky
support for older versions:
http://opam.ocaml.org/packages/ocurl/ocurl.0.7.6/
Thanks,
