Package: tldr
Version: 0.6.4-1+b2
Severity: important
Running tldr -u (--update) to download its offline cache fails with an
error:
fatal: couldn't find remote ref master
tldr: Received ExitFailure 1 when running
Raw command: git pull origin master
Run from: /root/.local/share/tldr/tldr
This makes new installations unusable because tldr needs to download its
offline cache before it can be used. Existing installations can still be
used, but will not receive any updates to the offline cache.
The tldr repository has removed the master branch and broke old clients:
https://github.com/tldr-pages/tldr/issues/9628
The latest tldr version 0.6.4 in bullseye (stable) refers to the master
branch which is now deleted.

Hey all,
This bug has been fixed in the latest version of haskell-tldr, which is
now available on Debian stable (bookworm). Unfortunately, backporting
this version to older Debian releases is probably not going to happen,
since building this version of haskell-tldr which older GHC toolchain
will most probably not work (I haven't tried it though).

I agree with this, I believe it makes sense to rename this binary
package to tldr-hs.
