Re: Add rules for generating manpage



Hi Ryan,

your xmonad package is failing to build on architectures that do not
have support for GHCi, because you use runghc in debian/rules:

[Add rules for generating manpage
rak@debian.org**20120707193033
 Ignore-this: 289967ab67b5941552421360efb1622c
] hunk ./rules 6
+build/xmonad::
+	runghc util/GenerateManpage.hs
+
hunk ./rules 20
+
+clean::
+	rm -f man/xmonad.1 man/xmonad.1.html

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=xmonad&suite=experimental

General rule of thumb: Never use runghc in packaging scripts. Can you
fix that?

Note that xmonad is currently not buildable in experimental because
pandoc needs to be updated, which is one of those packages maintained in
git, and waiting for the git advocates in the group to work on their
packages.

Greetings,
Joachim
