This is like cheating, though, since I have already manually set executable the two debian scripts in my own unzipped ocaml source directory and run debian/postinst there and ocaml 3.06-8 configured now on my machine. Now the problem cannot be reproduced anymore. To summarize, when I tried to upgrade from 3.06-7 to 3.06-8, ocaml could not be configured after ocaml-base was. That means ocaml-source, ocaml-native-compilers could not, either. Then I downgraded to 3.06-7, and then tried to upgrade again. I got the same error twice. While still downgraded, I set the two scripts executable. First just debian/postinst, and still got the same error in /tmp/log, then debian/config, and found the error gone. Then I upgraded to 3.06-8, and this time no error reported. That's all. Best! shouxun
