Bug#806210: uutf: FTBFS when built with dpkg-buildpackage -A (dh_ocamldoc -i fails)

[Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>]

Package: src:uutf
Version: 0.9.4-1
User: sanvila@debian.org
Usertags: binary-indep
Severity: important

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(i.e. only architecture-independent packages), and it failed:

Sorry not to have a fix, as I am reporting many bugs similar to
this one.

There is a feature of "dh" which sometimes helps in cases like this,
which is to use override_dh_foo-arch and override_dh_foo-indep
for several values of "foo".


Once that both "dpkg-buildpackage -A" and "dpkg-buildpackage -B" work
properly, the package would be suitable to be uploaded in source-only
form if you wish.

Thanks.
