main package:
- .cma .cmi .cmo .cmxs .so META .so.owner
(and README, LICENSE, etc...)

devel package:
- .a .cmxa .cmx .o .mli .ml
(and documentation)

> should some files be deleted? ie: the .a files?

If you don't know just don't delete anything, just provide what the
install script did installed.
Anyway if there is something installed (by error) it won't have bad
effects on the real parts of the lib.

For any question, don't hesitate to ask to the current ocaml
packagers, they are listed at the beginning of this page:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/OCaml_Packaging

Also for any issue, or TODO things you can also use the ocaml wiki pages.
