it seems you are trying to build a cabal package without haskell-devscripts. I know you are the author of debhelper, but is there any other reason? In the next version of haskell-devscripts even supports the installation of cabal-built binaries in a declarative way, i.e. without modifying debian/rules. I can upload 0.8.14 if you want to use it for hothasktags. If you want to avoid cdbs, I’d be happy to see dh support Haskell, but it should use the same building steps as haskell-devscripts now, I’d think. Also, I don’t think we should ever use "cabal" in the packaging scripts, it would be similar to using aptitude instead of dpkg when building packages. Just use the Setup.lhs in every package.
