Agreed. I also suggest to have in ara's debian/control the following:
Maintainer: Debian OCaml Maint <debian-ocaml-maint@lists.debian.org>
Uploaders: some official DD

since, ara might take use of /etc/alternatives/pager
-pager (-nopager)
Use (or don't use) a pager displaying long output in interactive
mode. The pager command is defined in the configuration file
$HOME/.ara/ara.config. By default this is /etc/alternatives/pager. The
pager is only used when the output size exceeds the terminal height.
and all pagers are not in section:base and with low priorities. I also think
it is a good idea to Suggest: a pager or you have anything else in mind ?
