obus is only optional on systems that don't use D-BUS. It is needed on Debian.

https://github.com/ocaml-community/obus/blob/master/CHANGES.md says:

1.2.0 (2019-07-04)
- remove all Camlp4 dependencies

So I think Debian can just update to that.

I don't believe there is a dependency in the Debian package at the
moment (except indirectly via Debian's old version of obus).
According to 
https://github.com/0install/0install-debian/commit/dbea82da611eb9091cf36cbf8668dd40b8915057
the direct dependency was removed on Sun, 19 Nov 2017.
