I have also prepared debs which are documented here: http://bugs.debian.org/456618 http://cyber.com.au/~twb/darcs2.deb/ http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/darcs These use GHC 6.8, which is available for Hardy but not Gutsy. I have taken the trouble to do some minor bookkeeping: darcs (2.0.0-2) unstable; urgency=low * Refer to texlive instead of tetex (vastly reducing build deps). * Enable curl pipelining, because it sounds cool. darcs (2.0.0-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release (Closes: 456618). - Ignores .hg (Mercurial) metadata by default (Closes: #447100). - Ignores Waf metadata by default (Closes: #457656). - Doesn't silently overwrite unadded files when applying/pulling a patch that adds the same file (Closes: #394721). - Can reuse ssh connections more (Closes: #466452). * Bump curl dependency to libcurl4-dev. * Delete semantic.cache's (Closes: 457259). * debian/watch: update format (Closes: #457258). * Remove some patches to configure, since they look like noops. The file is in debian/patches/obsolete in case anybody complains. I have not integrated the changes from 1.0.9-1ubuntu1 and ubuntu2 and have the following outstanding lintian entries: W: darcs source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.7.2 (current is 3.7.3) W: darcs: manpage-has-errors-from-man usr/share/man/man1/darcs.1.gz 23: warning: `initialize'' not defined (probable missing space after `in') W: darcs: doc-base-unknown-section darcs-doc:5 Apps/Programming I notice the latter two are also still outstanding in your debs.
