proposed ebuild

I noticed that 'graphics.mli' isn't installed in the default ocaml installation and it is also not in the tree. This is partially to be expected, due to the following statement from https://github.com/ocaml/graphics:
> It used to be distributed with OCaml up to OCaml 4.08.

NOTE about the attached ebuild: The 'LICENSE' field doesn't match the description from the 'dune-project' file of the project exactly, but I couldn't find a closer match...
> (license "LGPL-2.1 with OCaml linking exception")
Comment 1 Alain Zscheile 2020-11-17 21:45:47 UTC
Additional note: It might be a good idea to add a virtual package ("virtual/ocaml-graphics"?) for the transition between dev-lang/ocaml-4.08 and dev-lang/ocaml-4.09,dev-ml/graphics.

Comment 5 Alain Zscheile 2020-12-18 11:53:16 UTC
Given that this doesn't seem to gain traction and that the library only gets few, irregular releases, I would be willing to maintain the associated package.

(Sorry, I'd forgot about this! Hopefully one of us can look at it shortly.)
