Source: haskell-argon2
Version: 1.2.0+dfsg1-1
Severity: minor

Hello,

The '+dfsg' suffix is misleading because there is no DFSG-freeness issue
with the repack, which was done to remove an embedded copy of libargon2.
Thus, the conventional suffix is '+ds' ("Debian source").

No repacking is actually needed because the embedded copy is not
installed by libghc-argon2-dev.  It just sits harmlessly in the source
package.  For each of maintenance, it would be better not to repack at
all.
