uccess. I also had the problem, but then after a time the package built correctly. You could simply look at it today to see if it is already solved. That said, the PTS seems to have frozen on november 2/3 or something such, so you would need to look at the build logs directly. Friendly, Sven Luther

ndbm.h and libc ...

2002-11-12 Thread Sven Luther
previous one ? Using it requires patching all over the source to change the ndbm.h includes into gdbm-ndbm.h ones. Is using /usr/include/gdbm-ndbm.h the right solution, or does a copy of /usr/include/db1/ndbm.h still be included in a non obvious place ? Friendly, Sven Luther

ml compiler/runtime suite does not easily know how to handle more than one directory. That said, it could well go into /usr/share/ocaml.
