[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#713822: libghc-readline-dev should depend on libreadline6-dev

[Evgeny Kapun]

Package: libghc-readline-dev
Version: 1.0.3.0-1

Currently, libghc-readline-dev depends on libreadline6, but not on libreadline6-dev.
However, it is unusable without libreadline6-dev. Both compiling a program that uses System.Console.Readline using ghc and loading such program using ghci results in error. The error message from ghc is:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lreadline
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

The error message from ghci is:

can't load .so/.DLL for: libreadline.so (libreadline.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

Installing libghc-readline-dev solves both problems.
