[Caml-list] [ANN] PG'OCaml 1.7

[Dario Teixeira]

Hi,

I'm happy to announce release 1.7 of PG'OCaml.  This release brings the long
awaited cleanup of the directory structure (or previous lack thereof), and
the migration of the build system to OASIS, which should make life easier
for users and packagers.  Speaking of the latter: I welcome feedback from
maintainers of Debian/Fedora/Arch packagers on further changes that would
make their life easier.

Note that building the tests is currently broken due to a known issue with
OASIS and syntax extensions.

Also of note is that PG'OCaml now depends on Batteries 2.0.  Users of ExtLib
are strongly advised to migrate to Batteries, as there is no easy mechanism
to build against ExtLib (if someone *really* needs this, it's not particularly
hard either, but it does require some manual tweaking of the _oasis file).

The package for 1.7 has already been pushed to the OPAM repository,
and should appear upon an 'opam update'.

Happy hacking!
Best regards,
Dario Teixeira

In the meantime, Sebastien Mondet noticed a missing dependency
in the _oasis file which caused a linking error.  I've just released
version 1.7.1, which fixes that problem (OPAM package has already
been pushed to the repository).
