status of the ocaml 3.09.0 migration ...
Hi all,
04:24 < vorlon> hey all. Where are we on being able to close bug #338435?
04:25 < vorlon> it turns out KDE needs ocaml to be pushed first, because
abiword-plugins uses gtkmathview and abiword and koffice both depend on
libwpd.
04:26 < vorlon> (so, in fact, they need to be pushed in at the same time,
hurrah.)
Well, i guess this is good, as it seems ocaml is being used in more outside
projects, there is also the other package of Jeffries which is linked to KDE.
For info, 338435 is the blocker bug i put to avoid ocaml 3.09.0 entering
testing without us noticing.
Now, i have not have time to follow this as i did in the past, nor will i have
time in the forseable future, so i would like someone else to step in, and
make a status report of the transition, and to make things easier, anyone who
knows a blocking issue with his packages could follow up to this bug report.
Also, there is 3.09.1 upcoming, and the latest patch did break the ABI
dependency, so i guess this means that we cannot easily do the migration today
and have to wait for 3.09.1, or revert the patch, or whatever. I would like to
hear a summary on this too from the guys who followed this as i was busy
elsewhere. ...
Friendly,
Sven Luther
