runtime dependency on base #22

Closed hannesm closed 6 years ago

hannesm commented 6 years ago

since release v0.11.0, ppx_sexp_conv requires base as a runtime dependency. we in the MirageOS ecosystem are interested in minimal trusted code bases, thus adding base is not a good option for us. (see earlier discussion about sexplib.v0.9.0 from last year at https://www.mail-archive.com/mirageos-devel@lists.xenproject.org/msg02638.html) and some discussion about ppx_sexp_conv at https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository/issues/11852

now, @diml asked me to open this issue here so that you can track this issue. here it is.

I made the change. We are preparing a v0.11.1 release, it will be part of it.
