[Bug 1129425] [NEW] dangling cmi files

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

Lintian (a Debian tool to find common problems in packages) reports those problems:
I: libocamlbricks-ocaml-dev: ocaml-dangling-cmi usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlbricks/gettext_extract_pot_p4.cmi
I: libocamlbricks-ocaml-dev: ocaml-dangling-cmi usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlbricks/ledgrid.cmi
I: libocamlbricks-ocaml-dev: ocaml-dangling-cmi usr/lib/ocaml/ocamlbricks/meta_ocamlbricks.cmi
I: libocamlbricks-ocaml-dev: ocaml-dangling-cmi 6 more files not shown

The detailed explanation for that error message is:
N:    This package installs a compiled interface (.cmi) without its text
N:    version (.mli). The text version should also be installed for
N:    documentation purpose. If the module involved doesn't have a .mli, its
N:    source code (.ml) should be installed instead.
N:    
N:    Severity: wishlist, Certainty: possible
N:    
N:    Check: ocaml, Type: binary

It's not big deal, of course.
