Dear Debian OCaml Maintainers,
do you by chance know any nicer solution for fixing plplot's FTBFS
than by dropping /usr/lib/ocaml/plcairo/ which is suddenly no more
build since somewhen between 8nd (last NMU) and 28th of August 2016
(bug report about FTBFS)?
If so I'd cancel or reschedule that NMU and do a new, less sacrificing
one.
(I tried to figure out any potentially causing packages using
which-pkg-broke, but as of now it only supports binary packages, so I
tried it with libplplot-ocaml and libplplot-dev, but that gave no
enlightning results.)

It seems as if the files for /usr/lib/ocaml/plcairo/ are no more built
for a reason unknown to me and independent of plplot. The remaining
libraries to be put into the libplplot-ocaml are still build.
Since /usr/lib/ocaml/plcairo/ seems to be only one part of the
libplplot-ocaml package and the remaining part looks functioning
without it, I decided to sacrifice that half of libplplot-ocaml to fix
the FTBFS and hence save all reverse dependencies from being removed
from testing. (libplplot-ocaml seems to have no reverse dependencies
not built from the plplot source package.)
After this mail, I'll upload an according fix as NMU to DELAYED/2.
Full source debdiff and libplplot-ocaml binary debdiff following. Feel
free to tell me to fast-forward or delay the upload a little bit more.
