Bug description

Full_Name: Oleg Trott
Version: OCaml 3.07p2
OS: Linux (Debian Woody)
Submission from: tw304h3.cpmc.columbia.edu (156.111.84.180)

  1. Emacs files do not get intalled automatically, and I had to do
    cd emacs && make EMACSDIR=/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp install

  2. Permissions get set correctly for camlp4, but not for ocaml and emacs files,
    so I had to do

chmod -R a+rX /usr/local/bin/ocaml* /usr/local/lib/ocaml
/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/*

My regular user umask (during ./configure && make && make world.opt) is 0077,

and su umask (during make EMACSDIR=/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp install)
is 0022. The former is perhaps why the permissions get mixed up.

By the way, both of these happened during ocaml-3.06 installation as well.

Thanks

This concerns installation of software that is no longer part of the distribution (camlp4 and emacs mode) and can be closed.
