Dear Release Team,

I would like to request a transition slot for ocaml 5.5.1.

I've uploaded it to experimental, and it builds successfully on
all architectures so far:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=ocaml&suite=experimental

I recompiled the OCaml world with it:

http://ocaml.debian.net/transitions/ocaml-5.5.1/

At most 446 source packages are involved. A binNMU will suffice for
most of them.


Cheers,

Hi

ocaml involves the llvm-toolchain packages. What's their status? Due the
build with the new ocaml version?

Cheers

I don't have the resources to build these packages, but Adrian Bunk just
volunteered to do it.

It's been two weeks and I see no progress... Are LLVM maintainers even
aware of the situation?
