I wrote a little article building on Don's "The lambda revolution" about making a .deb basing on a chat session with Ian:

There's an excellent article by Don "dons" Stewart called The lambda revolution which explains how to build a Haskell library in way that it is easy to download, compile, install, test, distribute, etc. The next logicall step is to make OS-specific packages of it and since today I've had a short talk with Ian "Iglo" Lynagh, maintainer of many Haskell packages on `Debian`_, who dissipated all my doubts about how to build a deb package of a Haskell library. Armed with that knowledge I am going to turn Don's dlist into a beautiful deb package for Debian, Kubuntu or any other deb based operating system and tell you how.

I thought you might be interested on it.
