Adopt a robust build system #57

Closed dbuenzli closed 4 years ago

dbuenzli commented 7 years ago

This is really not.

In particular it fails the safe-string migration of cmdliner 1.0.0 in 4.01.0 switches. See https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository/pull/8588#issuecomment-283512705

Haha, you could have said just "adopt a build system" :) Indeed, this needs to be done

avsm commented 7 years ago

There is a good reason for the existing build system -- depext cannot depend on ocamlfind. #59 goes some way towards removing the build commands from the opam file itself

External dependencies handling is integrated in opam (since 2.1.0-alpha). If this is still an issue, please open one in opam bugtracker. Thanks!
