I've seen this in the other packages being updated to 3.08.3, but could you explain the rationale to a newbie? Why is it better to have ocaml-nox provide a virtual package ocaml-nox-NNN, and why is it better to depend on that rather than "ocaml-nox (>= NNN)"? -- Eric Cooper e c c @ c m u . e d u -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
