permission to reopen this bug?

Not to my knowledge.  How do I check?

    $ grep -ri suggest /etc/apt 2>/dev/null 
    $

That's certainly not clear from the one-line description:

  $ apt-cache search ocaml | grep ^ocaml-core
  ocaml-core - OCaml core tools (metapackage)

> Please read the descriptions.

Seriously, Stéphane -- do *you* read the detailed package description
when you need to install a compiler?
