The module is simply named "Z". Its interface is similar to that of the Int32, Int64 and Nativeint modules from the OCaml standard library, with some additional functions. See the file z.mlip for documentation. The implementation uses GMP (the GNU Multiple Precision arithmetic library) to compute over big integers. However, small integers are represented as unboxed Caml integers, to save space and improve performance. Big integers are allocated in the Caml heap, bypassing GMP's memory management and achieving better GC behavior than e.g. the MLGMP library. Computations on small integers use a special, faster path (coded in assembly for some platforms and functions) eschewing calls to GMP, while computations on large integers use the low-level MPN functions from GMP. Arbitrary-precision integers can be compared correctly using OCaml's polymorphic comparison operators (=, <, >, etc.). Additional features include: - a module Q for rationals, built on top of Z (see q.mli) - a compatibility layer Big_int_Z that implements the same API as Big_int, but uses Z internally Fedora Account System Username: jjames
Drop BR ocaml (ocaml-ocamldoc will pull it when building) Ise %{?_isa} for devel subpackage https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines?rd=Packaging/Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package static library must be in static subpackage https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines?rd=Packaging/Guidelines#Packaging_Static_Libraries
Thanks for the comments, Ivan. (In reply to comment #1) > Drop BR ocaml (ocaml-ocamldoc will pull it when building) It is redundant, true, but I prefer to keep that particular BR since this is an ocaml package, so having an explicit BR on the package that provides the compiler and runtime seems like a good thing to me. > Ise %{?_isa} for devel subpackage > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines?rd=Packaging/ > Guidelines#Requiring_Base_Package Good catch. I have fixed this. > static library must be in static subpackage > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines?rd=Packaging/ > Guidelines#Packaging_Static_Libraries Except for the case of OCaml packages. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:OCaml, and the section entitled "-devel subpackage" in particular.

I can make a review for your package. Can you take my package review process? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=871037 librcc - RusXMMS Charset Conversion Library
Sure, I'm happy to swap reviews. Thanks!
It's weird for me ocaml-zarith doesn't provide debuginfo package.
Group is unspecified.
(In reply to comment #5) > It's weird for me ocaml-zarith doesn't provide debuginfo package. No OCaml package does. Our toolchain can't handle OCaml source files yet, even though the OCaml compiler does produce usable debug information with version 4.00.0 and later. I hope we can have debuginfo packages in the not-too-distant future, but right now it isn't possible. (In reply to comment #6) > Group is unspecified. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Group_tag.
I've looked at fedora ocaml-* packages. They use Group: Development/Libraries for both main and devel subpackage. Furthemore you can look at https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/5/5c/Packaging_OCaml_ocaml-foolib.spec it has Group too. So you should to use such group too.
Lots of packages and wiki examples still have Group tags from the days when they were still used. The Group tag is no longer used. It has been replaced by comps; see https://fedorahosted.org/comps/. This is the official Fedora policy on the Group tag: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Group_tag. My package is in compliance with that policy. Please take ownership of this bug. Up at the top, where it says: "Assigned To: Nobody's working on this, feel free to take it (edit) (take)", click on the "(take)". Also, set the status below as "Assigned". See step 3 of https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_Review_Process#Reviewer.
So. I think that using of Group tag it is an extra advantage. It will usefule for somebody who uses rpm -qi and looks at Group. Unspecified will confuse him. So it's a good practice to always fill the tag. But the tag is really optional. And I can't block review by this reason. So in the near time you will get a full review for the package.
