charset=UTF-8 Subject: Re: [Caml-list] opam corrupted my sources.list. This is not related to opam. It is a repository of Debian-style packages visibly intended for Ubuntu users, authored by Anil Madhavapeddy who hosted then on opensuse repositories. My guess is that you enabled this repository manually to get 4.02.1 OCaml packages at a time where they were not yet packaged in your official Debian repository. The best way to setup an OCaml *development environment* today is to install opam (either through your distribution package manager, as a binary, or from sources built from a distribution-packaged OCaml version), and then install ocaml-$version switches in opam. (For end-user packages written in OCaml, distribution packages are still very important.)
