There is a solution by using a certain tagged version of camlpdf, that should work: https://github.com/johnwhitington/camlpdf/issues/59

Therefore this AUR-package should be updated to fix the problem.

@JohnRobson: The Genlex module has been removed in OCaml 5.0: https://v2.ocaml.org/releases/5.0/notes/Changes So this must be fixed in camlpdf.

PSA: I've started hosting this as a prebuilt package in my repository for those that want to install them using pacman without messing around with building from the AUR.

Just type into the terminal export OCAMLPARAM="safe-string=0,_". that should do the trick

KenjiTakahashi commented on 2019-03-15 09:39 (UTC)

You can fix compilation by setting env var OCAMLPARAM="safe-string=0,_".

Someone who wants to adopt the package?

Doesn’t build:

ocamlfind ocamlopt -package bigarray -c -g -annot -w -3 pdfutil.ml File "pdfutil.ml", line 1227, characters 25-54: Error: This expression has type bytes but an expression was expected of type string
