Hello,
(Jane Street's) Core packages need update to cope with PPX-style syntax
extensions. But to package the current version of Core, many new
packages are needed. Here is a list (redacted from what is installed by
"opam install core_kernel"):

Some of these packages are already in unstable as part of my effort to
update ocaml-ipaddr. And versions 113.33.03 of variantslib, fieldslib
and sexplib (named sexplib310 in Debian) are already in experimental.
Uploading them to unstable will break the Core stack (starting with
janest-core-kernel) currently in unstable/testing and the Ocsigen stack.
I intend to do that as soon as everything needed for ocaml-ipaddr (and
the Ocsigen stack) is ready.
I am submitting this RC bug now to keep janest-core-kernel out of testing.
Cheers,
