That issue is not tracked in debbugs, because those vocal in the Haskell
team actively discourages the use of debbugs:
https://lists.debian.org/debian-haskell/2024/01/msg00012.html
Note: I don't discourage usage of debbugs. It's just that I'm unlikely to
notice bugs immediately due to the way debbugs notifications work.
The net effect of a) silence in response to filing bugreports, b)
responses when reporting issues to Haskell mailinglist, and even c) you
[dissing] my explicit attempts at steering conversation to the
bugtracker is discouragement of using the bugtracker.

[dissing]: Sorry, I cannot find any other way to describe what you
did when you replied to the list when I posted
https://lists.debian.org/debian-haskell/2024/01/msg00003.html and wrote
"Meh" when I posted
https://lists.debian.org/debian-haskell/2024/01/msg00010.html
With respect to "silence in response to filing bug reports": Debian is a
volunteer project. There is no service level agreement for bug response
time, or expectation even that a bug will ever get responded to.
My "meh" was in response to you insisting that the conversation be moved
to the bug tracker. I was explicitly stating that I was okay with
discussing bugs on the mailing list and NOT insisting that they be moved
to the bug tracker. The bug tracker is not user friendly for some users,
so I personally am fine with receiving reports through other means and
will not insist everyone use the BTS.
