Hi,

In my 'kickoff' sources, which use the CDBS module hlibrary.mk, the
d/compat file must be present. When I delete d/compat and instead
specify debhelper-compat (= 10) in Build-Depends, a d/compat file with
the value '5' is created. That causes follow-on issues like the one at
the bottom of this message.

This bug is merely a wishlist item in case someone plans to fix
hlibrary.mk. The issue goes away with the dh sequencer from
dh-haskell, which may be a better option for other reasons, as well.

Kind regards
Felix Lechner

Hi,

Tagging this wontfix for now.

The bug can be closed when hlibrary.mk is removed altogether.

Hi,

/usr/share/cdbs/1/class/hlibrary.mk has no user left and can now be dropped.

I'm tagging the 1055980 bug of pandoc-sidenote as FTBFS to mark it unbuildable.

Greetings

The plan is for haskell-devscripts to be dropped completely soon, once we
copy it's dh_haskell scripts to dh-haskelll.

Regards,
Scott

Nice, no package, no bugs
