I wouldn't be surprised if there is more OCaml-related breakage.
The big OCaml 4.11.1 change finally got pushed after about 3 weeks,
but there were several builds of OCaml-related packages in the
meantime - mainly bindings - which will now be uninstallable.
They should be easily fixable by simply rebuilding the package,
provided we can get those updates pushed quickly.
It'll probably affect libguestfs, libnbd, nbdkit.
I remembered I have a clean Fedora 33 box around so I can check this.
ocaml-libguestfs and ocaml-libnbd are both affected in current F33.
But not nbdkit, although there is a pending update to nbdkit which
probably will be affected:

I have done simple bump-and-rebuild updates of all three:
nbdkit

libguestfs

There may well be more affected packages.

Hopefully bodhi will grow the ability to stop this from happening in

but I think we shouldn't have such lengthy freezes. Or perhaps we can
limit them to a core subset of the distro.
