Package: c2hs Version: 0.12.0-1 Severity: normal

This package required the installation of the old GHC (ghc5) even though I am using ghc6 for development. It also required the installation of the old gcc (2.95), which is so outdated that it doesn't even support some of our archs yet.

Additionally, a newer version of c2hs is available upstream.

I've got partway into packaging the latest version of c2hs, but I'm not very clueful about debian packaging.

I did figure out that you can just drop 0.13.1 on top of the source tree of the old deb and it works with only minor changes. At least, it builds with only minor complaints.
