The ocaml-nox transitional package was removed by
<https://bugs.debian.org/1125099>, but this source package still
Build-Depends on it. Please replace the Build-Depends with a dependency
on its replacement (presumably ocaml).
Thanks,

Closes: 1074546 1131241
Changes:
pplacer (1.1~alpha19-9) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Fix Build issues with OCaml 5.2.0
- Use -Wno-incompatible-pointer-types
- Fix misleading indentation
- Upgrade to Ocaml 5.2.0 API of bigarray
* Build against the OCaml bindings for the current MCL version
(libmcl-ocaml-dev) instead of the frozen mcl14 fork. The OCaml
bindings have been re-enabled in the mcl package against MCL 22-282,
so the mcl14 package can be dropped from Debian. This keeps the
"guppy mcl" subcommand and the "--mcl" option of "guppy compress"
working.
* Build-Depends: s/ocaml-nox/ocaml/ since ocaml-nox was removed from
Debian (Closes: #1131241).
* Replace the removed Array.create with Array.make and build mutable
buffers with Bytes.create instead of String.create (OCaml 5.2+), which
is needed now that the build gets past dependency resolution against
the re-enabled OCaml bindings of the current mcl package.
* Build-Depends: add libtingea-dev. The current mcl OCaml bindings
record -ltingea in mcl.cmxa, so pplacer needs the tINGea development
files to link.
* caml_bigarray.patch: use Caml_ba_data_val (the bigarray data pointer)
instead of Caml_ba_array_val (the bigarray struct pointer) in the C
stubs, which had been operating on the bigarray header. This was
causing wrong likelihood values and heap corruption that surfaced as
test failures and segfaults. gemmish_c also passed the struct pointer
to Caml_ba_data_val, yielding the flags field as the data pointer.
* New patch marshal_header_size.patch: OCaml reduced Marshal.header_size
from 20 to 16 bytes. pplacer hardcoded the 20-byte header, so the
-j N (default 2) forked placement workers deadlocked because the
parent read 4 bytes of the data into the "header" and then waited for
body bytes that never arrived. Use Marshal.header_size/total_size.
* Do not strip debug symbols from library
* Finally libmcl-ocaml-dev is ported to latest mcl version
Closes: #1074546
* Standards-Version: 4.7.4 (routine-update)
* Reflow Uploaders field (cme)
* Remove Priority field (cme)
* Remove trailing whitespace in debian/changelog (routine-update)
* Drop 'Rules-Requires-Root: no' from d/control (routine-update)
* Reformat the Last-Update date as ISO YYYY-MM-DD.
* Set upstream metadata fields: Repository-Browse.
