Description Jerry James 2020-05-08 17:44:00 UTC
Spec URL: https://jjames.fedorapeople.org/ocaml-compiler-libs-janestreet/ocaml-compiler-libs-janestreet.spec
SRPM URL: https://jjames.fedorapeople.org/ocaml-compiler-libs-janestreet/ocaml-compiler-libs-janestreet-0.12.1-1.fc33.src.rpm

Description: This package exposes the OCaml compiler libraries repackaged under the toplevel names Ocaml_common, Ocaml_bytecomp, Ocaml_optcomp, etc.

A note on the package name: the main ocaml package contains a subpackage containing the compiler-libs module.  Since we prefix ocaml package names with "ocaml-", that package is named ocaml-compiler-libs.  This package contains a module named "ocaml-compiler-libs".  Clearly the package name cannot match the module name, since that package name is already in use.  We could prefix it with another "ocaml-", making the package name ocaml-ocaml-compiler-libs, but that strikes me as less helpful for somebody searching for this package than the name I have chosen.  I am willing to listen to arguments that I have not chosen the best name.

Comment 1 Dan Čermák 2020-05-10 18:55:57 UTC
I think the name is good as it is and way better than ocaml-ocaml-compiler-libs.

Two minor issues:
- Where did you obtain the minimum required version of dune from? Upstream's opam file has a 1.0 and not 1.5.1.
- Contributing.md is imho not useful in a system package.

Beside that: package approved!

Whoops, I was looking at git head instead of the 0.12.1 release.  Fixed.

Agreed.  I have removed it.  Changes at the URLs above.
