If not, I'd say 3.0 it's more recommended. We use 3.0 (quilt) for the other packages, but it is no big deal. Maybe 1.0 works better with git-buildpackage? > * About the fact that libghc6-missingh-doc is substituting > missingh-doc: reading policy 7.6.2, my understanding is that Conflicts > is more appropriate than Breaks (because the old package must be > completely removed). Why are you changing it? I suggest you look how marco did it with other packages: $ apt-cache show libghc6-hscurses-doc Package: libghc6-hscurses-doc Version: 1.3.0.2-3 Replaces: haskell-hscurses-doc (<< 1.3.0.2-2) Provides: haskell-hscurses-doc Recommends: ghc6-doc, libghc6-mtl-doc Suggests: libghc6-hscurses-dev Conflicts: haskell-hscurses-doc (<< 1.3.0.2-2) > * package descriptions: I don't know what you mean with "DHG > consistence", but don't like very much the initial paragraph you have > put in all the descriptions (it could be the last, maybe; the first > paragraphs should give a general idea of what the package do, not where > to find information about the language it is written with).

Maybe someone can design a better stile for them? This could then be put in the haskell policy and changed in _all_ our packages – consistency is still important. But this would probably have to wait for after squeeze. > Cheers, Giovanni (who feels a bit strange of standing for the first time > on the other bank of the DD river!). :-) Enjoy!
