tutorial-ocaml-v

In a previous tutorial about compiling ocaml-5.2.0 in the Crostini console, we saw that we were still able to get fully functional commands for:

But that there was some serious issues with:

In addition we saw that the build script uses the command ln -s which is a command that produces failures in Crostini.

Never-the-less, it was still possible to use ocamlopt, and ocamlnat, which were not broken yet.

With ocaml-5.4.0, there are more and more parts of the system that are broken, and which don't compile out-of-the-box anymore.

Now we only get the ocamlopt command that is able to compile something, and we are trying to figure-out if the ocaml-system will get more and more poor over the next following years.

Fortunatly in this dark ocaml-2025 year, we are still able to compile old versions, but the future is un-sure if it will still be possible in a near or far future...

ocaml-2025 in difficulties...
