Description Richard W.M. Jones 2008-02-28 15:18:45 UTC
Spec URL: http://www.annexia.org/tmp/ocaml/ocaml-openin.spec
SRPM URL: http://www.annexia.org/tmp/ocaml/ocaml-openin-20070524-1.fc9.src.rpm
Description: OCaml syntax to locally open modules

The package is rpmlint-clean except for:

ocaml-openin.i386: E: no-binary
ocaml-openin.i386: E: only-non-binary-in-usr-lib

which are not bugs, see bug 433783.

Comment 1 Parag AN(पराग) 2008-03-01 14:24:52 UTC
May I know please reason for packaging .cmo file?

From guildeines =>
*.cmo files are not normally included. There is however one exception -- if file
is needed for link (like gtkInit.cmo in lablgtk or std_exit.cmo in OCaml
itself), then it should be included.


Is this needed by any other package?

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2008-03-01 14:34:04 UTC
This is (another) thing I need to change about the packaging guidelines.

In this case pa_openin.cmo is the actual program we're distributing.  It's
an OCaml bytecode object file which is loaded into the OCaml parser at
runtime and changes the syntax of the parser.  So the packaging guidelines
should mention this.

I'm going to prepare new draft guidelines to cover this and other
issues but I haven't got around to it yet.

Comment 3 Parag AN(पराग) 2008-03-01 14:38:47 UTC
one way to silent 
ocaml-openin.i386: E: no-binary
is to use in SPEC
BuildArch: noarch


Holding review till new guildelines will get approved.

Comment 5 Parag AN(पराग) 2008-04-04 03:58:16 UTC
which new guildeline change allows .cmo file here?

Comment 6 Richard W.M. Jones 2008-04-04 10:34:36 UTC
It's the exception:

  "if the cmo file is a camlp4 preprocessor (like Camlp4OCamlPrinter.cmo
   in OCaml), then it must be included because otherwise the syntax
   extension would not be available."

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/OCaml#head-acc221f1e087bc5ce860356b34823bb447da5df5

*.cmo files are loadable object files.  Camlp4 (the macro
preprocessor) loads the pa_openin.cmo file at runtime, which
modifies the actual syntax accepted by the compiler.

In this case it adds the useful 'open M in e' syntax so you
can open a module just for the bit of code that actually needs
it, not for the whole program.
