On the system where I'm in charge of installing ocaml and related software for many users, I find it comfortable to findlib-ize all the packages. For instance, a META file for Pcre is: version = "4.2.7" requires = "" archive(byte) = "pcre.cma" archive(native) = "pcre.cmxa" (I do the same for instance for lablgtk) Of course, it would be easier if all the packages were findlib compliant (it's usually strightforward to add the installation/desinstallation rules and the META file) ... -- Alain Frisch ------------------- Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr
