[...] > John (Max) Skaller, mailto:skaller@maxtal.com.au Hi Max, This is really a pity you've found half the Ocaml packages you've tried broken and impossible to install. I'm very sorry for that and I consider it a shame for us, as we consider ourselves as highly competent professionals ... Concerning ledit in particular, I'm extremely surprised since I use it for years now with absolutely no problems. I think I installed it on more than 50 machines and 5 different Unix architectures right out of the box. So, please explain us your problems and help us to improve the quality of ledit nad more generally of our Caml packages. Also for CamlImages, please report us your problems, we will help you and fix the library for everybody. Last, please feel free to publicly cite in this mailing list the name of all the bogous libraries you've ever found in the INRIA distributions or Web sites. We'll be glad to hear about that and then to fix the faulty programs, or even remove them from our distributions if they are too bogous to be fixed. Thank you for helping us to fix our bogous software.
