A .cma file is a marshalled OCaml structure. It would be insane (and fragile) to use anything else than ocamlobjinfo to read it. Maybe we can make an optional check that will be enabled if ocamlobjinfo is available (and making ocaml-nox a Suggestion)? When building OCaml-related packages, it is always installed anyway. -- Stéphane -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-ocaml-maint-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
