Bug#998156: contains non-DFSG-free files
Has there ben any progress on getting MLton packaged for Debian? Is there anything I can do to help? I haven't seen anything since Matthew Fluet's response.

Bug#998156: contains non-DFSG-free files
Your right, but I think (not on the basis of real knowledge) that ml-nlffigen isn't used in either the compilation of the MLton compiler, nor by the MLton compiler in compiling user code. I thought that it was for a MLton compiler user to use, and had been tweaked so that the output was usable by MLton. I certainly could be wrong about this.

(I assume you meant ml-nlffigen.) ml-nlffigen is part of SML/NJ, not part of MLton.

Again, I don't think that that is anything used either in MLton construction or use. I would tink that if the license can be found and is good enough, like the ckit stuff, it could go in a MLton non-free package. Otherwise, I guess just remove it. Matthew?

As far as I know, the ckit stuff is just included because it needed some tweaks to work under MLton. I don't think that any of "our" stuff depends on it. I would think that the right solution would be to move it into a separate package, and that package would be part of the "non-free" world in Debian. Matthew: am I correct?

Bug#707410: mlton: FTBFS: gc/int-inf.c:180:43: error: unknown type name '__gmp_const'
Thanks a million. I was getting worried that I hadn't seen any response. Is there any discussion going on any mailing list re MLton, because I haven't gotten any thing in ages. Thanks again.
