thanks for the report. Fixed, but upload will have to wait for the
binNMUs related to the haskell-text upload to finish, so that I can
build it against the latest versions.

It works fine if the maintainer just copies the data from the .cabal
file carefully (and maybe this step needs to be automated or at least
verified by lintian), not sure why this was not done in this case –
probably just a simple oversight.
