Would the following work?
- one source package per library package, generating a binary package for each compiler (and each architecture). Debian maintainer for the package gets it working with each compiler, and records dependencies on specific version numbers of each compiler in the control file. (Maybe there are compiler- and architecture-independent packages too.)
No. Debian only allows build-depends on a per-source package basis, so this would mean that the library would be restricted to platforms on which all haskell compilers exist. -- David Roundy http://www.abridgegame.org
