Bug#1129482: pcl FTCBFS: unsatisfiable sphinx dependency

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: pcl
Version: 1.15.0+dfsg-3
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: cross-satisfiability

pcl cannot be cross built from source due to unsatisfiable dependencies.
One of those is sphinx. Fortunately, sphinx is already being skipped in
arch-only builds such as cross builds. Therefore this dependency can be
moved to Build-Depends-Indep with no further changes. I verified that
this is indeed ok by comparing a thus modified build with an earlier
full build using diffoscope (thanks to reproducible builds). Please find
a patch attached.
