I tried out building https://github.com/xenserver/buildroot on CentOS 6.6 It builds around 300 packages and then it just gets stuck while building ocaml-core-kernl-111.28.00-1.el6 . build log: https://gist.github.com/gautammaloo/92a6199ee4ed100b1b92 I was looking for more upstream version of ocaml-core-kernel for el6. As you were saying Jonathan is already working on that http://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/jonludlam/ocaml402/epel-6-x86_64/ . I am hoping if ocaml4.02 is ready by May,2015 I could use to build xapi for CentOS 6.6. Meanwhile I can try out https://github.com/xenserver/buildroot on CentOS 6.5.
