Hello,

This may be a bit off topic, but maybe someone here has importante related 
information. I am running Kubuntu, the lattests stable version, but I am 
running unstable Haskell packages, that is, I fetch the dsc, diff and 
tarballs and build the debs myself of what will come in the next version of 
Kubuntu. So I have the advantage of running recent versions, and at the same 
time, keeping packages (which come usefull when I want to remove everything, 
or when mainstream software is too weird).
But, installing the ghc6-doc packages gives me this error:

(Reading database ... 156024 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace ghc6-doc 6.6.1-2 (using ghc6-doc_6.6.1-2_all.deb) ...

dpkg: error processing ghc6-doc (--install):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

 ghc6-doc


I am running the lattest haddock (0.8), so the problem might be something 
else. Any ideas what the problem might be?

Thank you.
