Hello,
A new version of the OCaml compiler has been officially released:
OCaml 3.11.2. This is a minor release that only fixes bugs[1].
As usual with OCaml, if the OCaml compiler is updated, *all* OCaml
packages should be rebuild. This is a not so simple task that should
be done in 6 rounds. We have done this before. Debian will probably
transition to 3.11.2 in a short time-frame. According to Debian
developers, all Debian packages recompile without issue with this new
compiler.
My questions:
* Should Lucid integrate this new OCaml 3.11.2? (I think so)
* If yes, can one or more Ubuntu Developers help me do the
transition as I am not myself an Ubuntu Developer? (validate my sync
request and mentor my work)
I would obviously taking responsibility to do and monitor this transition.
Best regards,
david
