Can you please tell us how to test info files? So far, I've been unable to get them
working through the "info" command-line utility. All what we do in the package is to
drop relevant files under /usr/share/info. So, nothing seems specific to Debian wrt
this issue.

Also, there are a bunch of generated files, not only ocaml.info.body.gz. The complete
list is:
- `ocaml.info.hocaml.info.kwd.hind.gz'
- `ocaml.info.hocaml.info.hind.gz'
- `ocaml.info.body.gz'
- `ocaml.info.haux.gz'
