If that helps, then either patch hgettext’s .cabal (which is what its Setup will use to determine what version of Cabal to use), or pass --constraint using DEB_SETUP_GHC_CONFIGURE_ARGS in debian/rules. In either case you should add an explanation, saying why this is needed and noting that updating cabal-install will require hgettext to be rebuilt. Would that solve it?
