Automagically handled by the emacs stuff that just broke. The idea is that the ocaml packages put the emacs source in a directory and registers himself, and then, the different emacs flavors either byte-compile them immediately if installed, or byte-compile them when being installed. > Since the debian directory contains emacs related files, I think > it does, doesn't it?

As for a CVS version, well, the idea is to ship sarge with ocaml 3.07, i think we have the time for this, given Xavier's schedule and the current state of things in debian, so i will try to do a cvs-snapshot packages (would be easier if it where not parallel installable).
