I have discovered that ocaml-findlib package must be install to compile some xl stuff.

http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/ocaml-findlib


Are there any more depenancies needed for any additional functionality?

Hey,

Is ocaml-findlib a new dependency for Xen 4.1, or was it already required in 4.0 ?

It's new. I'd forgotten about it when I saw the previous "new
dependencies" thread, sorry.

There shouldn't be anything in libxl/xl that needs ocaml.
Ocaml is optional to compile the ocaml xenstored (tools/ocaml/*).

That's right, ocaml-findlib is only a dependency if ocaml is enabled,
which I think happens by default if ocamlopt is available.

It's use is all under tools/ocaml though so it shouldn't impact any
tools/libxl or xl stuff.

I can confirm at least one instance: if you don't have ocaml on your
system at all, everything builds fine; but if you have ocaml, it
complains about not having ocaml-findlib. :-)
