+ocaml for Debian
+----------------
+
+ Please note that the copyright of the compiler libs is QPL, not LGPL like
+ the rest of the standard library. See the copyright file for details.
+
+ WARNING !!!
+
+ If you installed this package, and all of a sudden your bytecode program
+ stopped working, then you need to upgrade your ocaml library packages (the
+ libfoo-ocaml ones) to packages rebuilt using ocaml (>= 3.06-13). Normally
+ you should not have been able to upgrade ocaml to 3.06-13 or later if such
+ libraries are still installed on your system, but Bug#170825 in dpkg allowed
+ you to upgrade ocaml without checking that the virtual dependencies are
+ still provided.
+
+ 1) The ocaml package has been split into different binary packages :
+
+ o ocaml : contains the full ocaml suite
+ o ocaml-nox : the full suite except for the graphics(Tk) modules
+ o ocaml-base : contains the rutime stuff (ocamlrun + dlls + Tk)
+ o ocaml-base-nox : contains the rutime stuff (ocamlrun + dlls - Tk)
+
+ o ocaml-native-compilers : contains the native built part of the ocaml suite
+ (ocamlc.opt, ocamlopt.opt, ocamllex.opt, camlp4o.opt and camlp4r.opt)
+ o ocaml-compiler-libs : contains several modules used internally by
+ the ocaml compilers. They are not needed for normal ocaml
+ development, but may be helpful in the development of certain
+ applications.
+ o ocaml-source : contains the full ocaml source for the (few) package which
+ need them at build time or for personal use (it should _not_ be used to
+ build ocam litself).
+
+ 2) The caml include files are found under /usr/lib/ocaml/<ocaml_version>/caml.
+ A symlink is provided from /usr/include/caml for convenience. If
+ /usr/include/caml was previously a directory, for whatever reason, a warning
+ will be isued and the file moved to /usr/include/caml.bad. This can be
+ safely erased later on.
+
+ 3) User installed stuff should not go under /usr/lib/ocaml/<ocaml_version>,
+ but rather under /usr/local/lib/ocaml/<ocaml_version>.
+ I will take no responsability for people who break this rule and mess things
+ up.
+
+ 4) Starting from ocaml 3.05, ocaml now puts all dll.so files into a common
+ stublibs directory, so the ocaml-ldconf tool for handling the ld.conf
+ file is not needed anymore, but we will still keep it aroung until all
+ libraries are ported. ocaml-ldconf is now declared deprecated, and will
+ be removed in the near future, probably at the time of the ocaml 3.07
+ release, and outputs a warning in this sense when a package still using
+ it get installed.
+ Notice that user installed dll.so files should go into
+ /usr/local/lib/ocaml/<ocaml_version>/stublibs which is searched before
+ /usr/lib/ocaml/<ocaml_version>/stublibs.
+ The older method of using ocaml-ldconf is obsolet now.
