Hang on ... that's really strange. The packages.debian.org page at: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/libdevel/libdbi-ocaml-dev shows the package Depends on the drivers. But the diff at: http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/o/ocamldbi/ocamldbi_0.9.9-1.diff.gz seems to indicate that the package Suggests the drivers only (which would be correct). Strange ...
