Hi, I'm trying to compile "virt-mem" 0.3.1 with ocaml 3.11.0. The compilation fails with the following files : kernel.ml, virt_mem_ksyms.ml, virt_mem_mmap.ml, virt_mem_utsname.ml which use a camlp4 extension. I have not learned camlp4 yet, so I don't know how to fix this, could someone tell me how to correct this ?

So for instance for this current problem that I don't know how to fix because I don't know camlp4 yet, a helper someone could log through ssh, fix it and commit the fix. If there's noone interested, just forget it :) _______________________________________________ Caml-list mailing list.
