libxenapi-ocaml-dev: Xen Cloud Platform - OCaml bindings

 The Xen Cloud Platform (XCP) is a server virtualization and cloud
 computing platform, with support for a range of guest operating systems,
 including Linux network and storage support.
 .
 XCP addresses the needs of cloud providers, hosting services and data
 centers by combining the isolation and multitenancy capabilities of the
 Xen hypervisor with enhanced security, storage, and network
 virtualization technologies to offer a rich set of virtual infrastructure
 cloud services. The platform also addresses user requirements for
 security, availability, performance, and isolation across both private
 and public clouds.
 .
 XCP consolidates server workloads, and enables savings in power, cooling,
 and management costs. This improves reliability and adaptability in
 ever-changing IT environments, with optimized use of existing hardware,
 and contributes to environmentally sustainable computing.
 .
 This package contains OCaml libraries for the XenAPI. These will
 allow a program to communicate with an XCP host running xapi.
