[Caml-list] ocaml-3.03-alpha doesn't compile

[Marcin 'Qrczak' Kowalczyk]

It tries to run boot/ocamlrun which doesn't exist.

I symlinked ../byterun/ocamlrun - then it fails later:

File "parsing/longident.ml", line 38, characters 32-53:
This function expects too many arguments

This place looks fine though (faulty compiler?).

I've had that problem with building the new ocaml alpha release - with
exactly that error. Did you perchance use the -prefix option to
configure? When i've just used configure with no arguments it's worked,
though.

No, I ran configure with no options.

Make sure you do "make world", not just "make".

Oops, ok.

It fails in another way (The compiled interfaces ../../../utils/config.cmi
and /usr/local/lib/ocaml/parsetree.cmi make inconsistent assumptions over
interface Pervasives). I fixed it thus:

Hi,

I don't understand your proposition of change. This directory does not
depend on the files of the directory "parsing".

Moreover, I don't understand why your above error message talks
about"/usr/local/lib/ocaml/parsetree.cmi". OCaml is not supposed to
install "parsetree.cmi" in the destination library directory. Did you
installed it yourself by hand?

Well, it did - some module from there, perhaps indirectly, tried to
use Parsetree. I don't remember which module triggered this and I don't
know why.

Some module haven't found Parsetree in directories specified by -I, and
it happened that /usr/local/lib/ocaml was a symlink to /usr/lib/ocaml
where the previous version of OCaml was installed, and the new compiler
happened to actually look there despite it hasn't been installed yet,
and it found a module belonging to an older version of OCaml.

Anyway it helped and now OCaml-3.03 works for me. So if nothing there
should use Parsetree, we should investigate why it did. I can't easily
reproduce it now because I no longer have an incompatible version of
OCaml installed so it won't fail now.
