Public bug reported:
Apparently, the distributed cma and cmxa for this ocaml library refers (at least) in Ubuntu Wily to an obsolete C library named libt1 : # strings /usr/lib/ocaml/lablgtkmathview/lablgtkmathview.cma | grep lt1 $-lt1 # strings /usr/lib/ocaml/lablgtkmathview/lablgtkmathview.cmxa | grep lt1 $-lt1 Since this libt1 library isn't available anymore on the system, the compilation of even a simple demo program using lablgtkmathview is currently failing on wily : + ocamlfind ocamlopt -linkpkg -package lablgtk2 -package lablgtkmathview gui.cmx -o gui.native /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lt1 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status See attachement for the source of this little demo (needs packages lablgtkmathview-dev and ocaml-findlib). FYI, the version of lablgtkmathview in Debian jessie doesn't suffer from this issue, and I managed to obtain working packages for Ubuntu Wily by rebuilding them via dpkg-buildpackage inside a wily chroot via the current wily .dsc file : https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/lablgtkmathview_0.7.8-6build3.dsc So maybe something went wrong during the build of the binary packages for Wily ?
