Re: [Caml-list] Merlin issue with sedlex

["Frédéric Bour" <frederic.bour@lakaban.net>]

Dear Christoph,

The released version of Merlin doesn’t support 4.04.0 yet (but I didn’t put the right constraints in opam file).
A new release is expected this week, in the meantime you can use the development version:

opam pin add merlin --dev-repo

Cheers,
Fred
