+ (ocaml-forge-origin name version 1627 + "0cyj6sfdvzx8hw7553lhgwc0krlgvlza0ph3dk9gsxy047dm3wib")) I changed this to be ocaml-forge-uri. There are multiple reasons why I think it's a better idea: * if one ever writes an ocaml updater then it can use the existing code to update the hash. * the hash is checked at compile time to be a correct base32 hash (when running make). This is because base32 is implemented as a syntax rule. * it's consistent with what other packages do.
