I plan to get rid of ocaml4.07* at some point. For that, I'll need to import a bunch of packages (ocaml-core and friends, at least). Will see if I have enough time for that.

Hi,

These OCaml packages fail to build because some issue with Dune
versions, respectively:

ocaml4.07-core-kernel
ocaml4.07-ezjsonm

ocaml4.07-odoc
ocaml4.07-piqi
ocaml4.07-piqilib
ocaml4.07-ppx-expect
ocaml4.07-ppx-jane
ocaml4.07-sedlex
ocaml4.07-spawn
ocaml4.07-splittable-random
ocaml4.07-sqlite3
ocaml4.07-uri
ocaml4.07-utop
ocaml4.07-zed
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

fails because:

From my understanding, more or more cases like this will happen. The
question is: do we try to fix? Or do we plan to remove ’ocaml4.07-’
packages?
