Please don't, upload now the package we currently doesn't yet know how
long will take to fix these new changes.

Probably, BTW, what do you think about it?
BTW, a META file is good anyway, mandated by policy or not, so please

Nothing, the only change will probably be that you need not to call
dh_ocamlld because shlibs installed in default dir are looked for by
default.
