Greetings, I just noticed that dh-haskell fails to install data files declared in the .cabal file with the message "Unhandled file: <data file here>". While searching for the cause of this, I found that dh-haskell rejects all files it doesn't know about with this message . While I think the failure to install data files is just a bug I could quickly fix by teaching dh-haskel to handle them properly, I still like to give others the opportunity to speak up before I change (yet to become) core build tools. I further think that handling unknown files with a failure isn't good, as it is prone to fail on packages which install exotic kinds of files. Just writing out a warning or completely ignoring unknown files would IMO be a better solution, as it allows installing such files with dh_install. But I also think that Dmitry might have had a special reason for handling unknown files this way. Could you please give some input on that? Regards Sven
