Public bug reported:
I kindly request the removal of the camlp4-extra binary package from the
Ubuntu universe archive - the reason being NBS [1]. Detailed rationale
follows:
The camlp4 parts of the ocaml source have been split to a separate
camlp4 source package in Debian and synced to Ubuntu with the 4.02
release. The camlp4-extra package now became purely virtual, being
provided by the camlp4 binary package. All reverse dependencies of
camlp4-extra have been rebuilt with the new camlp4 package during the
ocaml transition. The remaining camlp4-extra dependencies can stay as
the package is still provided as a virtual one.
