I will look to your proposed changes soon. Though I do not see why you mixed this up with unrelated cosmetic modifications. Renaming tuareg-mode, however, is out of question. -Ralf.

Here's the MR: https://salsa.debian.org/ocaml-team/tuareg-mode/merge_requests/1 Please note that autopkgtests for Tuareg require one of: 1. ocaml-mode being elpafied too. 2. a manual workaround to pull in ocaml-mode to the autopkgtestbed. I'm also unable to confirm whether the LXC+autopkgtest cl/cl-lib fix is needed because of this blocker. I hope my changelog and commit history shows how easy it will be to convert ocaml-mode to elpa-caml <- not a typo. https://stable.melpa.org/#/caml Cheers, Nicholas signature.asc Description: PGP signature

However, I don't know anything about elpa and probably won't have the time to look into it for the next future, so patches are welcome! -Ralf.

Package: tuareg-mode Severity: important Dear Debian OCaml Maintainers, Thank you for maintaining tuareg-mode! Unfortunately it's autopkgtests have been failing since emacsen-common 3.0.2 and unversioned emacs were uploaded, and tuareg-mode is delaying their migration to testing. Would you please adapt tuareg-mode to the new infrastructure? In the case of irony-mode, the quick fix for autopkgtest on LXC was to add "ert_eval = (require 'cl)" to debian/elpa-test; this was not required for tests to pass on a real system or in any type of chroot. The use of d/elpa-test requires converting the package to use dh-elpa rather than legacy debian/emacsen.scripts. In addition to the general case of making src:packages maintenance less burdensome, using dh-elpa appears to have insulated many packages from the breaking changes recently introduced by emacs upgrades. This action will also close #850071, #582981, because dh-elpa does not support XEmacs. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance :-) Cheers, Nicholas
