Re: [Xen-API] Compiling xen-api on Debian Wheezy AMD64

[Dave Scott <Dave.Scott@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I assume you got your ocaml compilers from Debian. Unfortunately the Debian 
packages are split up: you look like you are missing the ocaml-native-compilers 
package. I think camlp4 is also in a separate package: I recommend installing 
that one too.
