Hi! I took haskell-time to version 1.1.4, as required by the next version of haskell-platform. The license is the same, but there an issue with the dependencies. The reverse-dependencies on libghc6-time-dev 1.2.4-3 are unversioned, but ghc6 6.12.1-12 also provides the name in another version: libghc6-time-dev-1.1.4-74673. I'm confused :) If the separate package is not needed, shouldn't the new ghc6 conflict with it? In that case, the Haskell Platform debian wiki is out-of-date, as we already provide 1.1.4. Other than that, haskell-time 1.1.4 is just a matter of inserting a new entry in debian/changelog, as far as I can tell. We can also comment on #426612 that the Typeable instances are already provided.
