To save you the effort of creating 100 RPMs for all the OCaml-libraries out there, it might be more economical to integrate automated generation of RPMs into the CDK-distribution. As it seems, there are currently only binaries in tar.{gz,bz2} format available. What do the CDK-maintainers think? Such a contribution would surely be very helpful for Linux-users who don't want to build things from source.
