 +.. |summary| replace::
 +    Today, ocaml is obsolete in the debian packages : the most of the
 +    librairies are still linked with Ocaml3 althought Ocaml4 is out since
 +    almost a year. When we need to develop with Ocaml4, we have to recompile
 +    all the dependencies, but this implies to install them for the whole
 +    system. But we can use a local repository with some findlib configuration.
 +
 +Findlib is now a required tool for an Ocaml project compilation. Each
 +application uses now findlib for searching the dependencies, and the linking
 +phase.
 +
 +We first need to create a local configuration in wich we write where to find
 +the packages :
 +
 +
 +.. code-block:: bash
 +
 +    destdir="/home/chimrod/ocaml/packages/"
 +    path="/home/chimrod/ocaml/packages/:/usr/local/lib/ocaml/4.00.1:/usr/lib/ocaml:/usr/lib/ocaml/METAS"
 +
 +:destdir:   is the path where we want to install the newly compiled packages.
 +:path:      is the path list where to find the packages.
 +            
 +Of course, you need to replace `/home/chimrod/` by your own installation path.
 +It must be an absolute path.
 +
 +The path to this file can be saved with the shell environnement ; we just need
 +to reference it in the `.bashrc` file :
 +
 +.. code-block:: bash
 +
 +    export OCAMLFIND_CONF=/home/chimrod/ocaml/ocamlfind.conf
 +
 +That's now : each new package will now be installed in your packages directory,
 +and the compilation will also look for this path for the required 
 +dependencies : you do not have to install the packages as root anymore.
