So semi-related to this, to get OCaml working on RISC-V again (a Fedora secondary arch) we will need to at some point move to post-4.10 in Rawhide. We've carried nojb's out of tree RISC-V patch in the OCaml package since Nov 2016. However he hasn't updated it for 4.10 (for various good, but complicated technical reasons). For this reason the OCaml compiler doesn't work for RISC-V in Fedora 32 or Rawhide which have OCaml 4.10. To resolve this I'd like to use the upstream RISC-V patch which is close to getting into the OCaml compiler: https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml/pull/9441 (They're currently waiting on building a QEMU-based CI system which I hope will be based around Fedora.) The PR above is closer to OCaml 4.11, but OCaml 4.11 hasn't been released yet (not even alphas). Long and the short is this will require some sort of OCaml pre-4.11 package, and a complete rebuild of everything in Rawhide. (I'm not proposing that we bother fixing OCaml for RISC-V in Fedora 32). We could do it this week? If it helps you. If it's going to be a problem then I could delay this until you've rebuilt the packages you mention below. I don't believe the delta from 4.10 to 4.11 is that large, but as with any rebuild of this scale there can always be unexpected problems. > ocaml-migrate-parsetree: update to version 1.7.0.
