Is there something I can do about this? I am using the standard Arch Linux package.

@FMB

It seems like ocaml is built with no compression support.

dune build --always-show-command-line
...
3 | include Compression
            ^^^^^^^^^^^
Error: Unbound module Compression

Apparently menhir should be added as a dependency. Also, it looks like OCaml > 5.0.0 is not supported:

dune build --always-show-command-line

Ah, of course. I always forget about this issue. Too bad there is no general solution for this yet (at least AFAIK). Thanks for your help :)

@cdfa

Re-installing/compiling ocaml-yojson is the solution.

Hi, since 3.3.4-1, I'm getting the following error:

==> Starting build()...
      ocamlc src/utils/.merlin_utils.objs/byte/std.{cmi,cmo,cmt} (exit 2)
(cd _build/default && /bin/ocamlc.opt -w -40 -g -bin-annot -I src/utils/.merlin_utils.objs/byte -I /usr/lib/ocaml/yojson -no-alias-deps -o src/utils/.merlin_utils.objs/byte/std.cmo -c -impl src/utils/std.ml)
File "src/utils/std.ml", line 1:

       is not a compiled interface for this version of OCaml.
It seems to be for an older version of OCaml.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

My dune version is 2.3.1. I do have an OCaml project I'm working on on this machine, also using dune, but I don't think that should conflict)
