Bug#934340: Please remove the dependency on obus and camlp4
Why have you (I assume) removed 0install and obus from the repository? A camlp4 release for 4.08 came out on Aug 7th: https://github.com/ocaml/camlp4/releases/tag/4.08%2B1 And even if not, surely waiting for the NEW queue to clear so that obus can be upgraded is better than removing working packages? -- talex5 (GitHub/Twitter)http://roscidus.com/blog/ GPG: 5DD5 8D70 899C 454A 966D 6A51 7513 3C8F 94F6 E0CC

Not at the moment. The new version depends on (at least) two NEW packages (lwt_log and ppxlib), and the NEW queue backlog is pretty big now. Moreover, lwt_log depends on lwt >= 4.0.0, but Debian has 2.7.1. Updating lwt in Debian cannot be done IMHO without updating ocaml-ctypes, which requires (at least) another NEW package (integers). So I guess we'll have to remove obus and its reverse dependencies from testing for a while. Cheers, -- Stéphane

It is needed on Debian. https://github.com/ocaml-community/obus/blob/master/CHANGES.md says: 1.2.0 (2019-07-04) - remove all Camlp4 dependencies So I think Debian can just update to that. > It also seems that the latest upstream version of zeroinstall-injector > is buildable without camlp4. Please drop the dependency in the Debian > package as well. I don't believe there is a dependency in the Debian package at the moment (except indirectly via Debian's old version of obus). According to https://github.com/0install/0install-debian/commit/dbea82da611eb9091cf36cbf8668dd40b8915057 the direct dependency was removed on Sun, 19 Nov 2017. > [1] https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=933992 > [2] https://opam.ocaml.org/packages/0install/ -- talex5 (GitHub/Twitter)http://roscidus.com/blog/ GPG: 5DD5 8D70 899C 454A 966D 6A51 7513 3C8F 94F6 E0CC

Source: zeroinstall-injector Version: 2.12.3-2 Severity: serious Dear Maintainer, zeroinstall-injector build depends on obus, which is affected by [1]. According to [2], it is an optional dependency. Please provide a version of zeroinstall-injector without the dependency on obus. It also seems that the latest upstream version of zeroinstall-injector is buildable without camlp4. Please drop the dependency in the Debian package as well.
