updating the coq package
Hello,
I have been working on updating the coq package. The current state is
on the experimental/master branch. The packaging neeeds some serious
review since I am not a coq user. In particular, I have updated to
the latest upstream release (8.10.2) and re-activated building of the
coqide package, now based on lablgtk3.
Particular problems:
- tests have to be adjusted. Currently I get test failures the origin of
which I haven't tracked down yet, so I can only build with
DEB_BUILD_OPTS=nocheck. This obviously has to be fixed.
- When building the package with coqlib installed, dh-ocaml generates
dependencies both on the installed version of coqlib, and the one
being compiled. The current workaround is a build-conflict, which
does the job but is annoying. I suspect that the root of this
is a wrong setting of a searchpath in one of the makefiles which gives
priority to libraries installed by the system.
The package has to go through NEW since there is a new coqide package. Any
takers for the review ?
Cheers -Ralf.
