Building from Git HEAD, I am getting this:

    $ du -b $(find debian/octave-interval/usr/share/ -type f) | perl -ne '$s+=(split(/\t/))[0];END{print "$s\n"}'
    1571590

The above code seems to be exactly the way Lintian computes the amount 
of data in /usr/share.  This is below the 2Mb limit and, hence, the 
arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share warning is not triggered.
