sudo dpkg --force-all -i /opt/sw/fink/dists/stable/main/binary-darwin-x86_64/languages/ocaml_4.03.0-2_darwin-x86_64.deb

fixes it, it's cause ocaml-findlib overwrites %p/lib/ocaml

So this issue is directly related to #538

This package also installs improperly, here is my working version.

I can commit it if everyone is okay with it.

PatchScript: <<
  perl -pi -e 's,ocamlfind install,ocamlfind install -destdir=build,g' Makefile
<<
CompileScript: <<
  make
  make cmxs
  make doc
<<
InstallScript: <<
  mkdir build
  make install
  mkdir -p %i/lib/site-lib
  mv build/* %i/lib/site-lib/
  mkdir -p %i/share/doc
  mv doc %i/share/doc/ocaml-lib
<<

Does 46bad2a fix the build problem? Or does it still need the modified *Script changes?
Should it be updated to something newer than 5 years old? Or is the rest of the ocaml stack too old?

[TheSin-]

I think the findlib issue fix should fix this I'll test it tomorrow.

@TheSin- ping? did the fix work with findlib?

[TheSin-]

Shoot sorry I forgot to reply, it did indeed work just did my second install with it and it wasn’t an issue at all

Thanks
