Ah?
So what sits in the main packages of libraries (e.g., in ocaml-facile as
opposed to ocaml-facile-devel) then? Don't only shared libraries belong in
the main package?
So I take back my comment that the OCaml stack is properly packaged. ;-)
That sounds like almost as much of a mess as Go and Rust then.
