Title:
  Remove camlp4-extra binaries from the xenial archive

Status in ocaml package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I kindly request the removal of the camlp4-extra binary package from
  the Ubuntu universe archive - the reason being NBS [1]. Detailed
  rationale follows:

  The camlp4 parts of the ocaml source have been split to a separate
  camlp4 source package in Debian and synced to Ubuntu with the 4.02
  release. The camlp4-extra package now became purely virtual, being
  provided by the camlp4 binary package. All reverse dependencies of
  camlp4-extra have been rebuilt with the new camlp4 package during the
  ocaml transition. The remaining camlp4-extra dependencies can stay as
  the package is still provided as a virtual one.
