Still, would have it been possible to make a dependency on the .aux file such that ocamlbuild can be aware that this file changed in order to launch a new compilation? V. ___ Caml-list mailing list.

No there is no such behavior, but this may be simulated by having two rules, one .tex-.aux+... and one .tex+.aux-... and putting them in the right order might work. -- Nicolas Pouillard http://nicolaspouillard.fr ___ Caml-list mailing list.
