Upgrade to 5.0.4 and switch to dune

Upgrade to 5.0.4, in order to fix failure reported in PR 262781 with a recent OCaml.

omake build is still available, but switch to dune, which is easier to maintain.

Hi @Thierry thank you for your patch!  Are you by any chance interested in taking over the port?  I have currently very little availability to take care of it.

Cheers,
Michaël

Hello Michael,

I’m currently upgrading the OCaml ports, and that already implies adding many new ports: one more is not a problem…

But to avoid maintainers locks, it seems that a team ocaml@FreeBSD.org would be great, and I’m going to propose that after this great upheaval!
Comment 3 Thierry Thomas freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-10-14 17:40:14 UTC 
diizzy@FreeBSD.org just marked this port as deprecated, although this PR is waiting for PR 262781 to be relaxed.
Comment 4 Daniel Engberg freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-10-14 17:43:25 UTC 
Feel free to change status, we have one consumer in tree and seeing that it's been broken for such a long time there seem to be little no interest in this port.
Comment 5 Thierry Thomas freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2023-10-14 17:51:03 UTC 
All OCaml ports are severely lagging and inevitably some of them become BROKEN…

Hi,

https://reviews.freebsd.org/D43861 also takes care of updating to 5.0.4.

PS: In my opinion, even if that port'd have no in-tree user, it would still be a loss to get rid of it. Because, due to its former status of being bundled with OCaml, it must have been part of many educational materials, many of them probably still existing as of today.

Hi please disregard the previous note, I got confused with x11-toolkits/ocaml-graphics. As for the sole tree user of camlimages, freetennis, it is covered in 263162 which contains a build fix for both camlimage and freetennis on the current 4.08 tree. And, as part of the 4.14.1 upgrade commit D43861, camlimages get upgraded to the latest 5.x version.
