[Xen-API] build issue with xapi

[Anirban Chakraborty <abchak@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I am trying to build xapi via opam install xapi, and getting following error:

The configure script is not able to find topfind, as it looks from the 
messages. However, I do have following set:

OCAML_TOPLEVEL_PATH=/contrail/opam/system/lib/toplevel

As a check, when I run utop and then in the cmd prompt issue, use “topfind”, it 
doesn’t complain. So, as it appears that the configure script doesn’t find 
“topfind" whereas utop can find it. Does it mean that findlib could not be 
resolved properly?

I am pretty new to OCaml. Can some one shed some light on it?

My xapi code is at following change set:
commit ffd3561cb05e828ffa8646fb9cc91e3c3e721b2f

    Merge pull request #6 from jonludlam/fusion-vbdfix
    
    Relax the rules about ISO vbds coming from ISO SRs

and ocaml version is:

[root@localhost xapi.1.0.0]# ocaml 
        OCaml version 4.01.0

Findlib has been successfully loaded. Additional directives:
  #require "package";;      to load a package
  #list;;                   to list the available packages
  #camlp4o;;                to load camlp4 (standard syntax)
  #camlp4r;;                to load camlp4 (revised syntax)
  #predicates "p,q,...";;   to set these predicates
  Topfind.reset();;         to force that packages will be reloaded
  #thread;;                 to enable threads

thanks much,
