As announced in [MBF] and [#1117130] the GNOME team would like to remove libgirepository1.0-dev during the forky cycle. According to dak, this source package contains a Depends or Build-Depends on libgirepository1.0-dev which blocks its removal. The README.Debian for libgirepository1.0-dev [README] provides advice on how to choose an appropriate replacement for libgirepository1.0-dev, and will be updated if new information becomes available. haskell-haskell-gi seems to be a language binding that uses libgirepository-1.0, so probably it should use libgirepository-1.0-dev (or libgirepository-2.0-dev) as its replacement.

Control: tags -1 + patch
Please consider the attached patch. It does not change the resulting
binary package, except for the adjustment to the -dev package's
dependencies; not otherwise tested.
Thanks,
