Thanks.

It just needs some data.

Yes, it would be a good idea. The same thing would be good also for
gitit itself: libghc6-gitit-dev now depends on gitit, because gitit
contains the data. This dependency could be relaxed if the data were
split out in a separate package. Anyway, I didn't do that when I made
gitit, because I was primarily concerned with getting it into squeeze.
As soon as it's fully installable again, I'll ask again to the release
team to include it.
