Build log shows an issue with as: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Phase: package -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ===> Building package for ocaml-4.05.0_1 actual-package-depends: dependency on /usr/bin/as not registered (normal if it belongs to base) file sizes/checksums [2433]: .......... done packing files [2433]: .......... done packing directories [1]: . done Replacing "as" in BUILD_DEPENDS and RUN_DEPENDS with "${LOCALBASE}/bin/as" fixes the issue for me.
Running truss -f ocamlopt test.ml |& grep 'exec.*bin/as' results in 59272: execve("/usr/bin/as",0x80072d2e0,0x80072d408) = 0 (0x0) 59273: execve("/usr/bin/as",0x80072d300,0x80072d408) = 0 (0x0) I'm not sure whether ocamlopt uses /usr/local/bin/as from binutils.
