Re: Bug#567667: libghc6-xmonad-contrib-dev: Can't update libghc6-xmonad-dev due to not updated dependancy

hmm. With the current haskell packages, this would be solved by a simple
binNMU. But with the packaging style from back then, a sourceful upload
is required that adjusts the Build-Dependency and Binary dependency
version.

Can I find the rebuilt libghc6-xmonad-dev package somewhere so that I
can prepare an upload? And to what distribution should I upload? (I
haven’t any exposures to stable updates before, so I’ll need some
guidance, sorry.)

Alternatively, just remove the libghc6-xmonad-* packages from the
update. The reason for the binNMUs only affects binaries (i.e. the
xmonad package). This is probably the easier and less intrusive fix.

Greetings,
Joachim
