# How do I get it to skip ocaml?

There isn't a built-in way to do that. MacPorts is designed not to make use of any software you install outside of MacPorts. You could possibly modify the portfile to look for ocaml in a different directory. But what we would really like is for someone to figure out why the ocaml port fails to build, and fix it.
