The command line you quote looks suspicious. The "cd glib; ..." line
should not be there. Are you using -j (parallel build)? Is the full
build log available somewhere?

The build log for my successful build of monotone-viz using OCaml 4.02.2
can be found at:


http://ocaml.debian.net/debian/ocaml-4.02.2/pool/monotone-viz_1.0.2-3.1_amd64.build

As you can see, monotone.mli is compiled before app_types.mli. That
order is broken somehow on your side.


Cheers,
