uh… did you try to submit patches or report bugs against the package? pycaml is known to be dead upstream. We¹ do our best to keep it in a good shape. But, we don't receive bugreports against pycaml and is used by only one package… that makes bug fixing not easy :) > Here is a fixed version that also supports a few nice extensions: > > http://nmag.soton.ac.uk/tf/pycaml/ > Is this released/linked/advertised somewhere? (other than this mail). It would be nice to have your fixes packages so that others can benefit from your work. ¹: I'm not aware of any pycaml user among Debian OCaml Maintainers.
