Package: fsharp Version: 4.0.0.4+dfsg2-1 Dear Maintainer,
(Sorry to be reporting a bug in an experimental package, feel free to close if you don't want to track this sort of issue here.) In order to run Hypelib http://hypelib.github.io/Hype/ and DiffSharp http://diffsharp.github.io/DiffSharp/index.html, which requires F# 4.x, I did an "aptitude install fsharp/experimental" and then rejected solutions until it got one that only removed old libraries, and upgraded/installed a heap of stuff including in particular the experimental mono packages. Invoking fsharpi or fsharpc dumped core. Then I noticed that $ apt-cache policy libfsharp-core4.3-cil libfsharp-core4.3-cil: Installed: 3.1.1.26+dfsg2-3 Candidate: 3.1.1.26+dfsg2-3 Version table: 4.0.0.4+dfsg2-1 0 1 http://ftp.ie.debian.org/debian/ experimental/main amd64 Packages *** 3.1.1.26+dfsg2-3 0 850 http://ftp.ie.debian.org/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages When I installed libfsharp-core4.3-cil/experimental, fsharpi and fsharpc stopped dumping core and started to work. Currently the dependency on libfsharp-core4.3-cil is unversioned. It should probably be versioned like the libmono* libraries. Cheers, --Barak. -- Barak A.
