>   * 3 of these cannot create a working setup.ml
>   * 2 do not find prerequisites (this can be an import problem)
> - 19 package not buildable

>     unsuited for ocaml-4.00
> - 1 package not installable
>   * this one tried to install stuff outside the allowed directories
> - 2 packages not downloadable
>   * this seems to be a problem with oasis-db API. Sometimes tarballs
>     contain escape characters (%7E instead of ~)
> - 7 packages with hard packaging problems
>   * e.g. camlzip has a negative "ord" number
>   * these are the blank fields in the table. Data is available in
>     log files, though
> - 13 packages have errors in prerequisite packages ("skipped")
> 
> total: 125 packages have db entries here
