camlpdf.2.7.2 failed to build.

Is the build meant to work on windows?

[johnwhitington]

Well, it builds on Windows here. But then, I don't use OPAM on Windows, and am generally not up to date on modern best practices for OCaml on Windows.

Having said that, having the environment not recognise "cc" as a C compiler seems odd... Don't we normally symlink "cc" to the current C compiler?

[mseri]

I think it depends... this probably works fine with cygwin. You can see the compilcations with windows at the bottom of this page https://github.com/ocaml/opam-repository/wiki/Depexts-os-distribution---os-family-values

Sorry I merged by mistake, I'll send a fix for the availability constraint as a separate PR
