I implemented it and did some tests. I did not test aborting it halfway, but I’m confident that it is ok – the moving of files can be continued. Only an abortion between rmdir and ln would be bad. The postinst is here: http://anonscm.debian.org/darcs/pkg-haskell/ghc/ghc-doc.postinst.in Unless you see major problems there, I’ll upload it tomorrow. @DHG: There is no hurry in getting ghc-7.0.4 in. Therefore, I suggest we do this change with 7.0.3, upload to unstable, and wait until this fix is in testing.
