Nope, it just meant "add a build-dependency". There are various reasons for that: - a lot of packages use the ocaml.mk CDBS class, which used to be in ocaml-nox, while now is in dh-ocaml, so you will need the dependency - now dh-ocaml also ships ocamlinit.mk, which is similar in spirit to ocaml.mk, but not CDBS-specific. If you want to use that (which is recommended), you will need the dh-ocaml dependency - dh_ocaml will be prepared after the 3.11 migration (see http://upsilon.cc/~zack/stuff/ocaml-debian-deps.pdf , linked from http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/OCamlTaskForce/), if for that time we already have all the build-deps in place, the transition to dh_ocaml will be easier Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli -o- PhD in Computer Science \ PostDoc @ Univ.
