Hi Joey.

We're considering moving the CDBS class hlibrary.mk from haskell-devscripts to
the cdbs package.  In haskell-devscripts there's also some dh_haskell_*
(shell) scripts; do you think they also should move to the debhelper package,
or it's better to keep them in a separate package, as they are now?

Other haskellers: What's your opinion on this?

I think that if we should only move hlibrary.mk outside haskell-devscripts if
the dh_haskell_* scripts also move out, and we can remove the package from the
archive.

If that's not the case, I'd like to ask the cdbs maintainers to help us in
maintaining the code style in sync with the other snippets.

Greetings.
