What's the thinking behind removing *.mli by default? Even in packages
which are well documented, the *.mli files are the definitive reference
for programmers. I think they should always be in the -devel
subpackage.
I replaced it in ocaml-SDL and ocaml-camlimages with ocamldoc generated
html references, which seems to be pretty much the same as the
individual mli files.
But I wanna use 'less'!
Seriously, I don't want to fire up a browser just to check an interface.
Even the text mode browsers have serious UI problems compared to
'less /usr/lib/ocaml/3.08.3/list.mli'.
Is there any reason why *.mli files can't be included in a -devel
package? I'm not talking about the main library package where it would
add bloat, but in a package which would only need to be installed by
developers.
Other then size, no. So if there is a use for them, and appearantly there is, I
guess the not shipping of them should be removed from the guidelines (thats why
they are a draft :)

Hans
