I see src:julia now Build-Depends: libutf8proc-dev
but
src:utf8proc Build-Depends: julia [amd64 i386]

I also see your note in utf8proc's debian/rules:
# For architectures that provide a julia package, reproduce the
# complete build process, by generating `utf8proc_data.c` from
# the Unicode data and GNU Unifont, and comparing with the one
# shipped by upstream.

Isn't this just going to make things unecessarily difficult for us and
derivatives to bootstrap julia?
Do we really need to 'generate utf8proc_data.c' for every build and on
every architecture?
I think a custom target in debian/rules and a comment should be sufficient.

Everything looks good in dsfmt, can I go ahead and upload that?
