I am maintaing the haskelldb package and it is definitely alive and well. I don't have a Debian install to test on, but I am glad to help get things compiling. See my detailed answers below:

These are not maintained any more.

correct? So we need to package the hdbc series. Are these maintained
actively?
Yes, the haskelldb-hdbc is still maintained and will continue to be as much as I am able. I belive I updated at least haskelldb-hdbc and haskelldb-hdbc-postgres to work with the 2.0 release of HDBC.
Like I said, I don't have a Debian install readily accessible to build these but I am glad to help. If need be, I am sure I can get a VM image and build myself but finding the time coudl be hard.
* Anything else to consider?
I guess just making sure haskelldb-hdbc and haskelldb-hdbc-postgres builds against the latest haskell platform release.
