[Pkg-haskell-maintainers] Bug#772867: hoogle: Trigger cycle causes dpkg to fail processing

[Guillem Jover]

Package: hoogle
Version: 4.2.33-3
Severity: serious

Hi!

This package can get involved in a trigger cycle. The problem is that
it installs interests on /usr/lib/ghc-doc/hoogle with files there
provided by ghc-doc, which is directly or transitively depended on
by hoogle itself.


A solution to the above is to simply switch the triggers to their
noawait variants, in this case from «interest» to «interest-noawait»,
as long as they are not critical for the activating packages, which I
think is the case here (?). Otherwise a fix might unfortunatly be more
involved.

Thanks,
Guillem
