Hello, ...

I get this problem for the 3.06-6.1 package from the archives, but they
disappear when i rebuild it.

I guess something did change, but i don't know what, will have to look
what caused this change, and maybe add a stricter dependency stuff.

So, anyway, i think i will have to upload 3.06-7 quicker than i
expected.

Friendly,

Sven Luther

Hello,

I've been having problems with the Debian ocaml distribution:


aurora:~$ ocamlopt str.cmxa stuff.ml
/usr/lib/ocaml/libasmrun.a(str.o)(.text+0x1de): In function `is_printable':
: undefined reference to `__ctype_b'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Error during linking


stuff.ml is an empty file. 


This does not occur when I build the distribution from source by hand, Debian 
or upstream. I can actually copy the libasmrun.a file from the compiled source 
tree into /usr/lib/ocaml and the build will succeed:


aurora:/usr/src/ocaml/ocaml-3.06/asmrun# cp libasmrun* /usr/lib/ocaml
aurora:~$ ocamlopt str.cmxa stuff.ml
aurora:~$ 


This is, in addition to the first time I've seen the error, the first time I've 
used Str. Learning the language :)



Also, I had to tweak the permissions of some of the scripts used in the 
ocaml-source package, because none had the execute bit set. I don't remember 
which ones; I just got into the habit of checking permissions when build 
failures occurred. The configure script was the first I saw.

I am running unstable, updated today, on an x86 (Pentium 4, 384mb RAM).

Thanks!
