Bug#500959: Caml-core is bloated



Package: ocaml-core
Version: 3.10.0.1

This package is called ocaml-core, and hence I expected it to install
a reasonably complete O'Caml environment.  It turns out, however, that

  Depends: ocaml, ocaml-best-compilers, ocaml-findlib, ocaml-tools, camlidl, ocamlweb, libounit-ocaml-dev, cameleon, ocamldsort, ledit, otags

At least half of these should not be pulled in by ocaml-core, there
should be an ocaml-full package that pulls them in.  Particularly
annoying is ocamlweb, which by default pulls in a very large LaTeX
installation.
