Thanks for trying to fix this so quickly. Let's see what else is
pending.

Do we know if someone actually scheduled those binNMUs (because they saw
a new GHC on unstable), or if there is an automated process in place? I
was against the latter since it could cause exactly the kind of problems
we are facing now.

It seems that haskell-devscript has broken (again) with ghc-8.8.1. This
causes packages to build with wrong provides, which as a side-effect,
breaks the binNMU. I have tracked them down, and will request binNMUs
for them, but please keep that in mind and do not upload ghc-8.8.1 to
unstable before fixing haskell-devscript.
Cheers,
