Bug#587300: libocsigen-xhtml-ocaml-dev: timestamp for shipped .cmi older than .mli -> Makefiles want to recreate them

[Török Edwin <edwintorok@gmail.com>]

Package: libocsigen-xhtml-ocaml-dev
Version: 1.3.3-1
Severity: normal

Using the Makefile from the Eliom tutorial I get a permission denied error:
ocamlfind ocamldep  -package lwt,ocsigen -I `ocamlfind query ocsigen` test.mli test.ml > .depend
ocamlfind ocamlc -g -thread -package lwt,ocsigen -I `ocamlfind query ocsigen` -c /usr/lib/ocaml/ocsigen/xHTML.mli
File "/usr/lib/ocaml/ocsigen/xHTML.mli", line 1, characters 0-1:
Error: I/O error: /usr/lib/ocaml/ocsigen/xHTML.cmi: Permission denied

The reason is that the timestamp for the .mli file is NEWER than the timestamp
for the .cmi file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 168068 Jun 13 12:57 /usr/lib/ocaml/ocsigen/xHTML.cmi
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  46899 Jun 13 13:02 /usr/lib/ocaml/ocsigen/xHTML.mli

I think that in the package the .cmi files should always be newer than the .mli
files, since normal users don't have permissions to recompile the .mli files.

For now I worked around the issue by using 'touch /usr/lib/ocaml/ocsigen/*.cmi'.
