Description-en: Tools to help Debian developers build Haskell packages
This package provides a collection of scripts to help build Haskell
packages for Debian. Unlike haskell-utils, this package is not
expected to be installed on the machines of end users.
.
This package is designed to support Cabalized Haskell libraries. It
is designed to build a library for each supported Debian compiler or
interpreter, generate appropriate postinst/prerm files for each one,
generate appropriate substvars entries for each one, and install the
package in the Debian temporary area as part of the build process.
