ocaml-0install-solver Subpackage of 0install

Zero Install is a decentralized cross-distribution software installation system. Other features include full support for shared libraries (with a SAT solver for dependency resolution), sharing between users, and integration with native platform package managers. It supports both binary and source packages, and works on Linux, macOS, Unix and Windows systems. This package contains a package dependency resolver based on a SAT solver. This was originally written for the 0install package manager, but is now generic and is also used as a solver backend for opam. The SAT solver is based on MiniSat (http://minisat.se/Papers.html) and the application to package management is based on OPIUM (Optimal Package Install/Uninstall Manager). 0install-solver uses a (novel?) strategy to find the optimal solution extremely quickly (even for a SAT-based solver).
