I've followed the instructions at [1] to create a .deb of vty[2]. It seems the helper scripts for Debian passes `--enable-split-obj' when running `./Setup.lhs configure'. This results in numerous multiple definitions of stuff. I have a few questions regarding this...
I think I understand what --split-objs does, but why doesn't it work for vty? I've debianised other haskell libs using the same method without problems. The only difference I can see is that vty uses FFI. Is that what causes the problems? How do I fix this? I'd rather not go in and manually change any automatically generated files, and the file that passes `--enable-split-objs' is automatically generated :( /M [1]: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Creating_Debian_packages_from_Cabal_package [2]: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/vty-3.0.0 -- Magnus Therning (OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus．therning＠gmail．com http://therning.org/magnus What if I don't want to obey the laws?
