@OCamlABI@ can need to be substituted in more files than simply
debian/control. In the packages I've already ported to 3.09 for example
I had the need to substitute it many times in .dirs files and sometimes
in .files files.
Thus I did something like the following in all packages of mine:
OCAMLABI := $(shell ocamlc -version)
OFILES := $(patsubst %.in,%,$(shell ls debian/*.in))
ocamlinit:
for f in $(OFILES); do sed -e 's/@OCamlABI@/$(OCAMLABI)/g' $$f.in > $$f;
done
I consistenly used "ocamlinit" target in all packages of mine, if you
like it we can recommend it.
Cheers.
