Hi Kaol,

I found a rather unfortunate issue...

As you can see here:

$ ghc-pkg field base haddock-interfaces
haddock-interfaces: /usr/lib/ghc-6.10.1/haddock/base/base.haddock
haddock-interfaces: /usr/lib/ghc-6.10.1/haddock/base/base.haddock
$ dpkg -L ghc6-doc|fgrep base.haddock
/usr/share/doc/ghc6-doc/libraries/base/base.haddock

the .haddock files in the latest ghc6 package are in the correct
package, but referenced wrongly in the ghc-pkg database. This means that
all newly built -doc packages have no links to entries from other
packages.

And as ghc6-doc’s postinst trigger also looks in the ghc-pkg list, no
packge from base will appear at
file:///usr/share/doc/ghc6-doc/libraries/index.html

This probably needs a fix in ghc6, and then a sourceful upload in every
already uploaded package to get the links in -doc right... :-(

Greetings,
Joachim
