Thanks for this work.  You've done a lot of healthy package cleanup
here, it's very much appreciated!

I've done a basic test of this and i think it's in good shape.  I might
do a little bit more cleanup (e.g. bump Standards-Version to 4.7.0, etc)
and then do an upload, if that's OK with you.  Or if you'd prefer to go
ahead and upload, that would also fine with me.

I think it's reasonable to avoid advertising or deliberately creating
non-standardized artifacts for the moment.  That seems like a reasonably
conservative approach, given the ecosystem schism, sigh.

The work you did to include the nodoc profile is great.  Thank you for
that!  I find myself wondering what would be necessary for us to
un-comment those and actually build the documentation artifacts from
source, rather than shipping whatever binary blobs happened to be placed
in the upstream tarball.

Probably the only thing necessary there would be to do some sort of
initial rm before the build process, but i haven't sorted out how to do
that cleanly.  (to be clear, i don't think this is something that needs
to be resolved before we put 2.2.43 into unstable).

If anyone else has had a chance to test this and wants to weigh in, i'd
be happy to hear from them too.
