Thanks for doing this. It will be great to have debuginfo available
for these packages.
I attempted to update ocaml-camlp5 to version 6.11. However, the
build failed like this (in an x86_64 Rawhide mock build):
ocamlrun ../main/camlp5 -nolib -I ../meta -I ../etc ./pa_lispr.cmo
pa_extend.cmo q_MLast.cmo pr_dump.cmo -mode S -o pa_lisp.ppo
pa_lisp.ml
ocamlopt.opt -g -warn-error A -I ../main -I ../meta -I ../lib -c -impl
pa_lisp.ppo
Fatal error: exception Assert_failure("asmcomp/emitaux.ml", 226, 4)
make[3]: *** [pa_lisp.cmx] Error 2
Since there is no such source file as emitaux.ml in ocaml-camlp5, I
assume that must be an ocaml source file. If I enter the chroot and
execute the same command without the "-g", it works. I probably won't
have time to investigate this further until Monday.
