I didn't notice that opam had been orphaned. This package is the tool
used for source packaging of OCaml packages under $HOME
(https://opam.ocaml.org/).
I don't especially like language-specific tools for managing packages,
because of the usual problems that have been widely discussed
elsewhere and it's not profitable to rehash them again. This is my
personal view.
The question is if we want to keep this in Fedora or not? ie. As an
official Fedora package versus something that opam maintainers would
provide themselves as a download.
