Verlauf
ocaml@4 packages the OCaml 4 compiler line separately from the main ocaml formula. It exists for projects and dependency graphs that still need the OCaml 4 runtime, compiler-libs AST, PPX compatibility, or build behavior rather than the OCaml 5 runtime model.
OCaml 4 began as the post-Objective Caml line that added features such as GADTs and first-class modules in 4.0. The 4.x series became the compatibility baseline for a large portion of the opam ecosystem across the 2010s and early 2020s, including packages whose PPX rewriters or compiler-libs dependencies track specific OCaml AST versions.
The 4.14 branch became the final OCaml 4 branch. OCaml.org release notes describe 4.14 as the last version of OCaml 4 and a long-term support branch for the transition to OCaml 5; OCaml 4.14.4 was released on 2026-06-15 with safe bug fixes and security fixes cherry-picked from OCaml 5.
The separate Homebrew formula reflects the same compatibility pressure seen in opam switches: developers may need a compiler line older than the default package to build older projects, reproduce releases, or support dependencies not yet migrated to OCaml 5.
Users install ocaml@4 when a project specifies OCaml 4.14 or an older 4.x-compatible dependency set. The package exposes the standard OCaml compiler commands, including ocaml, ocamlc, ocamlopt, ocamldep, ocamldoc, ocamllex, ocamlyacc, ocamlobjinfo, and runtime utilities.
Versioned compiler formulae are important for OCaml because compiler releases affect ABI, compiler-libs APIs, PPX ASTs, and package solver outcomes. ocaml@4 is a compact example of a package manager preserving a language ecosystem's old compiler branch while the main formula follows OCaml 5.
