Created attachment 558296
--> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=558296
two files ... "Makefile" and "Main.ml"
Description of problem:
I cannot link libraries provided by "ocaml-deriving-devel" package.
Which Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Fedora release 16 (Verne)
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. sudo yum install ocaml-deriving-devel
2. tar xvzf deriving.tar.gz
2. cd deriving
3. make && ./main
Actual results:
ocamlc -c -pp "camlp4of -I /usr/lib64/ocaml/deriving pa_deriving.cma"
-I /usr/lib64/ocaml/deriving nums.cma Main.ml
Camlp4: Uncaught exception: DynLoader.Error
("pa_deriving.cma", "file not found in path")
File "Main.ml", line 1, characters 0-1:
Error: Preprocessor error
make: *** [Main.cmo] Error 2
Expected results:
ocamlc -c -pp "camlp4of -I ~/lib/godi/lib/ocaml/pkg-lib/deriving-ocsigen
pa_deriving.cma" -I ~/lib/godi/lib/ocaml/pkg-lib/deriving-ocsigen nums.cma
Main.ml
ocamlc -o main -I ~/lib/godi/lib/ocaml/pkg-lib/deriving-ocsigen nums.cma
deriving.cma Main.cmo

Additional info:
The following (relevant) file:
/usr/lib64/ocaml/deriving/META
has suspicious contents.
name="deriving"
version="0.1.1a"
requires="%{camlp4}"
description="%{description}"

I'm reviewing a submission of an ocaml program. The spec file has
this at the top:
%global _use_internal_dependency_generator 0
%global __find_requires /usr/lib/rpm/ocaml-find-requires.sh
%global __find_provides /usr/lib/rpm/ocaml-find-provides.sh
as required by https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:OCaml#Requires_and_provides.
But it seems that those lines are not only unnecessary, but
detrimental. Taking them off generates the same Requires/Provides
(due to /usr/lib/rpm/fileattrs/ocaml.attr), plus additional ones. In
the case of the package I'm reviewing, it's innocuous. But I have an
ocaml package that I maintain where the extra Requires/Provides
generated by omitting those lines appear to be significant.
Is the wiki correct? Are those lines still needed for some reason?
Or is the wiki out of date?
