Richard, I see that the OCaml 4.12 release is not expected to happen until next week, after the beta freeze: https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/ocaml-4-12-0-first-release-candidate/7294 Some of my OCaml packages are currently not installable, due to the dynlink hiccup, I think. Rather than enter beta freeze with them in this state, I would like to rebuild them. I was thinking about proceeding with the updates needed for OCaml 4.12, since I have to build these packages anyway, and the updated versions also work with OCaml 4.11. As a reminder, these are the updates: - ocaml-base: 0.14.0 -> 0.14.1 - ocaml-migrate-parsetree: 1.8.0 -> 2.1.0 - ocaml-ppxlib: 0.15.0 -> 0.22.0 - ocaml-bisect-ppx: 2.5.0 -> 2.6.0 - ocaml-tyxml: apply this pull request to switch to ppxlib: https://github.com/ocsigen/tyxml/pull/271 - ocaml-lwt: 5.3.0 -> 5.4.0 - ocaml-ppx-deriving: 5.1 -> 5.2.1 - ocaml-ppx-optcomp: 0.14.0 -> 0.14.1 - ocaml-ppx-sexp-conv: 0.14.1 -> 0.14.2 - ocaml-sedlex: 2.2 -> 2.3 - ocaml-ppx-custom-printf: 0.14.0 -> 0.14.1 - ocaml-ppx-fields-conv: 0.14.1 -> 0.14.2 - Retire ocaml-ppx-tools-versioned along with a number of other package builds just to fix dependencies. That would also simplify things for you when OCaml 4.12 is released, as all of these updates would already be in place. What do you think? Also, I would like to update ocaml-ocamlgraph to version 2.0.0 at some point. The only Fedora consumers are frama-c and ocaml-dose3. The current version of frama-c can already be built with either ocamlgraph 1.x or 2.x. The version of ocaml-dose3 in Fedora (5.0.1) cannot be built with ocamlgraph 2.x. However, upstream has moved here: https://gitlab.com/irill/dose3 and released a 6.x series that supports ocamlgraph 2.x. Unfortunately, there are issues with moving to version 6.x. First, and easiest, the new versions depend on camlbz2 and parmap, neither of which are in Fedora. I've put together spec files for those two and can submit them for review if nobody else wants to do so. Second, upstream removed support for RPM in this commit: https://gitlab.com/irill/dose3/-/commit/e656b5783f1fc5fd75e0e2716b0a40aca282ad72 I don't know why. The commit message does not give a reason, and this change is not mentioned in the project changelog. I assume RPM support is important for the Fedora build of ocaml-dose3. I don't know what the best approach is to resolve this issue, but it is blocking the ocamlgraph update. Any thoughts on the matter are appreciated.
