Package: ghc6
Version: 6.6-3
Severity: normal
It would be nice to have symlinks in /usr/bin/ so that I can type
'ghc' instead of 'ghc6' and so that I can use existing scripts which
call 'ghc' by 'ghc' and not 'ghc6'. Perhaps there is something wrong
with my installation but these links do not exist for me. Thank you,
Frederik

There is a /usr/bin/ghc symlink, using the alternatives system.
If you don't have one for some reason then
/usr/sbin/update-alternatives --auto ghc
as root may fix it.
Otherwise,
/usr/sbin/update-alternatives --list ghc
/usr/sbin/update-alternatives --display ghc
dpkg -s ghc6
ls -l /usr/lib/*/bin/ghc*
may provide clues as to what is going on.
Thanks
Ian
