[Paparazzi-devel] Error compiling on 8.10

[Jean Damien Brossillon]

Hi,
this mail reply to Steffen, I subscribe since only a few and can't do
a direct reply, sorry.

It seems that with Debian unstable repositories (and Ubuntu 8.10
according to Stefen) the following error appears while compiling
paparazzi :

File "pprz.mli", line 122, characters 78-89:
Unbound type constructor Ivy.binding
make[1]: *** [pprz.cmi] Fehler 2
make: *** [lib] Fehler 2

I think my problem (and Steffen one) is that the ivy-ocaml package is
not installed
(try "$ aptitude show ivy-ocaml" and look after "State:") and can't be
installed because the package is broken and can't be installed because
it have a dependency over ocaml-nox-3.09.2.
$ aptitude show ivy-ocaml
Package: ivy-ocaml
New: yes
State: not installed
Version: 1.1-2
Priority: optional
Section: net
Maintainer: Pascal Brisset (Hecto) <address@hidden>
Uncompressed Size: 213k
Depends: libc6 (>= 2.3.6-6), libglib2.0-0 (>= 2.10.0), libpcre3 (>= 4.5),
         ocaml-nox-3.09.2, ivy-c (>= 3.8)

Which doesn't exist anymore in the new repositories, replaced by
ocaml-nox-3.10.2 :
$ aptitude search ocaml-nox
i A ocaml-nox                       - ML language implementation with a class-ba
v   ocaml-nox-3.10.2                -

The best way to fix the problem is to change ivy-ocaml dependency from
ocaml-nox-3.09.2 to ocaml-nox (ocaml-nox-3.10.2 is a virtual package).
