You're right, it is not needed (as long as Provides/Depends are properly
set in both -dev and runtime packages):

  $ apt-cache show libpcre-ocaml-dev | grep Depends
  Depends: libpcre3-dev, ocaml-findlib, libpcre-ocaml-kh2c0, ocaml-nox-3.11.1
                                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  $ apt-cache show libpcre-ocaml | grep Provides
  Provides: libpcre-ocaml-kh2c0

Cheers.
