Well it's a reason at least ;-) I don't know the packages well enough to judge whether it's a good one. However I would say that ghc6-doc is only an 900Kb deb and 8Mb installed isn't a great deal these days, especially if you're a developer. So, on balance, I'd wonder if it wouldn't be unreasonable to have the library's documentation in the main package and suggest or recommend, if not depend on ghc6-doc? -- James _______________________________________________ debian-haskell mailing list [email protected] http://urchin.earth.li/mailman/listinfo/debian-haskell
