I see that, apparently, this was done by NMUing whitedune to remove
the symlink and using Conflicts/Replaces in ocaml dune so that it can
still provide /usr/bin/dune.

I think that is completely opposite to the consensus in this thread
and also opposite to Debian policy.

Under the circumstances I felt I wouldn't be listened to if I simply
petitioned the maintainers of what is now src:dune again, so I have
escalated this to the TC.  See #919951.
