So basically there's ghc and gambas3 left. ghc is using 3.7 in experimental, so it will be fixed with the next haskell transition. gambas3 seems a bit more problematic: https://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gambas3/news/20160104T120048Z.html Unfortunately I can't access the upstream bug report. BTW we currently have 3.5, 3.6 and 3.7 in testing, and I guess 3.8 will follow soon. So we'll need more clean-ups. Cheers, Emilio
