Can't pass in/override flags #72

Closed Leonidas-from-XIV closed 4 years ago

Leonidas-from-XIV commented 7 years ago

I would appreciate if there was a way to override autodetection and pass in my own flags to depext. This is similar to #71 but more general.

My usecase is that I am building an image on one Docker base image (Debian) and would like to deploy it on another one (Alpine) but to get it to run I need to dump the Alpine depexts on the Debian image.

If there is interest, I could do a PR.

Thanks for offering to help. This would indeed be a very useful feature, and a PR would be welcome!

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!
