+=head1 NAME
+
+dh_haskell_extra_depends - generate the extra-depends file in Haskell packages
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<dh_extra_haskell_depends> [S<I<debhelper options>>]
+[B<-X>I<package>]
+[B<--exclude=>I<package>]
+[S<I<file>> ...]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+dh_haskell_extra_depends is a debhelper program that helps with calculating dependencies
+for building Haskell libraries.
+
+Since Haskell libraries are statically linked, packagers that use Haskell
+libraries cannot rely on the fact that dynamical libraries are dependencies
+of their packages to be sure that possible runtime data packages are installed
+at execution time. The extra dependencies mechanism allows libraries
+to declare some packages that are to be added to the dependency list of
+each package that uses them to build.
+
+This script scans the Haskell dependencies and harvest extra dependencies
+information, putting them in the file debian/extra-depends, which is later
+used by dh_haskell_depends to be included in the substvars file.
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+None, as far as we know. :-)
