Re: Generating lintian-overrides file?

Sorry, I think you misunderstood. Lintian complains about the file:

    usr/lib/haskell-packages/ghc6/lib/Cabal-1.6.0.3/ghc-6.10.3/Distribution/License.hi

The hand generated lintian overrides file contains this:

    libghc6-cabal-dev binary: extra-license-file usr/lib/haskell-packages/ghc6/lib/Cabal-1.6.0.3/ghc-6.10.3/Distribution/License.hi

However, every time the compiler version changes (6.10.3 above) or the
package version number changes (1.6.0.3 above) I need to hand edit the
overrides file.

Hence, I'd like to autogenerate this file. I'm using CDBS, so the normal
debian/rules solutions don't work.
