Description Marc Dionne 2015-05-06 11:08:42 UTC

Description of problem:

The current version in Fedora 21 has a broken dependency on ocaml(Bytes), and can't be installed.  ocaml(Bytes) is only provided by ocaml 4.02, Fedora 21 is still at ocaml 4.01.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

coccinelle-1.0.0-2.fc21.x86_64

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:

1. dnf update --best coccinelle

Actual results:

Error: nothing provides ocaml(Bytes) = 8c6e06d8b7c118aa01b614256354aed8 needed by coccinelle-1.0.0-2.fc21.x86_64

Expected results:

Update package to 1.0.0-2

Additional info:

Wondering if it's sufficient to add a new exception to the automatic dependencies in the spec file (add "-i Bytes" to the %global __ocaml_requires_opts line).  That does create an installable package.

I also note that depcheck failures were posted in bodhi for this problem (see https://taskotron.fedoraproject.org/taskmaster//builders/x86_64/builds/66552/steps/runtask/logs/stdio), but the update was pushed to stable anyway.

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2015-05-06 11:57:41 UTC

Hmmm, if those autoqa reports were readable and reliable, I might
pay more attention to them.

Your analysis is correct.  The new Bytes module was added in OCaml 4.02.
We should ignore that symbol on OCaml 4.01.

I will push an update shortly.
