Ok, I only did a "make install" and no "make install.bc",
but no problem (I had the bytecode version generated anyways).

Ok, here we go: It is a SuSE Linux 9.0, running on a
Dell PowerEdge 2500 (Intel CPU, 933MHz).

There are no config files until now (no sksconf, no
other), what I did exactly is:

bash-2.05b# sks.bc build 
bash-2.05b# ls -l KDB
total 300

Fatal error: exception Not_found
Raised by primitive operation at file "clean_keydb.ml", line 344, character 14

Is it necessary to actually provide a keyring dump
for this (actually there is none, I want to try
first with a few keys). There was no try to access
a file in the dump-directory, so there should not
be a problem.

Is it necessary to provide some more things from the
ocaml environment? In the actual setting I have not
configured any pathes to ocaml (and when the sks
is running I want to remove the compiler).

Cheers,
Olaf
