The tool “ocamldep” writes dependency specifications (by a default setting)
which should be handled by a software build system for the programming language
“OCaml” already.
I suggest to add a data export variant which will omit such duplicate information.
I hope that a bit less data could be written so that there will be also no need
for extra processing with questionable specifications by the build system.
