The OCaml package encodes the compiler flags into dependencies --

Because the compiler flags changed, combined with the builds being
done out of order, means that most of the packages now have broken
deps.
Will fix ...
Rich.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Detailed reasons:
This file:
https://pagure.io/fedora-ocaml/blob/fedora-38-4.14.0/f/utils/config.mlp
expands various compiler flags into an OCaml module.
The dependencies of this module are encoded into a hash value.
We in turn encode the hash values into RPM dependencies:
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/rpminfo?rpmID=33153300
In this case the only dependencies which changed where:
ocaml(Dynlink_compilerlibs) = a109267eb63024af68e38f0e6a92581f [-2.fc37]
ocaml(Dynlink_compilerlibs) = 941c2e7774f264aecaf84e4f31da9ad7 [-4.fc38]
ocaml(Stdlib) = 6d7bf11af14ea68354925f3a37387930 [-2.fc37]
ocaml(Stdlib) = 79b0e9d3b6f7fed07eb3cc2abb961b91 [-4.fc38]
We should likely do some filtering of compiler flags to avoid this.
Another option is to copy the Haskell stack's example: opt out of mass
rebuilds, and do our own in-order rebuild.
If you haven't already launched a rebuild, could you update the
ocaml-seq package to its latest version? That makes consuming
packages depend on the Seq in the standard library, instead of
ocaml-seq itself, which will make it easier to remove the ocaml-seq
dependency altogether from individual packages.
Thanks for taking care of the breakage. Regards,
