all config files should conform to OCaml syntax  #1

Description

@lefessan

Currently, in the roadmap, a lot of files have a weird syntax, supposed to be human readable.

Since ocp-get targets OCaml developers, the best syntax is the OCaml one (compatible with Genlex):

  • strings are between ""
  • spaces/indentation is meaningless
  • comments are between (...)

For example, the line

asmlink: -cclib -lfoo

should be something like

asmlink = [ "-cclib"; "-lfoo" ]

to remove any ambiguity.

This issue is attached to milestone 1, meaning that milestone 1 won't be passed until all files conform to this. Of course, there is one exception, the .opam file that only contains what is needed by CUDF.
