I was able to rebuild the involved haskell packages locally. Depending on the state of the ghc transition, we might need to binNMU those in tpu to complete the tranistion. As nettle is smooth-updatable, this isn't a blocker, though. Could you file the removal bug for lsh-utils? In any case, feel free to go ahead with the upload to unstable. Cheers -- Sebastian Ramacher
