Hi all,

I have been trying to transition ocaml before the Nov 5 deadline but atm it is failing on some architectures:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=ocaml&suite=experimental

It is also waiting on this to be accepted:

https://ftp-master.debian.org/new/ocamlbuild_0.9.3-1.html

(This used to be part of ocaml 4.02.3 but 4.03 splits it into a separate package.)

I will try to fix the ocaml build failure myself over the next days, however there are a ton of ocaml packages that need to looked at for the transition. Help would be much appreciated.
