ocamlbuild missing from path

Question

When I run ocaml --version I get The OCaml toplevel, version 4.07.1 . But when I try ocamlbuild --version I get the following error message:

Command 'ocamlbuild' not found, but can be installed with:

sudo apt install ocamlbuild

How is that possible?

Ocamlbuild is not bundled with the OCaml compiler since OCaml 4.03 . You may also want to have a look at dune as an ocamlbuild alternative.
