dh_shlibdeps has a problem finding which package some of the Haskell libraries come from, even though dpkg-query -S has no problem finding them. But the gf executable is statically linked against the Haskell libraries, so it will work even if these shared libraries aren't installed. But there will be a problem if other shared libraries are missing (.e.g. libtinfo, libgmp), so we need a better solution than simply ignoring all dependency problems...

DESCRIPTION
The Grammatical Framework (=GF) is a grammar formalism based on type theory.
It consists of
* a special-purpose programming language
* a compiler of the language
* a generic grammar processor
The compiler reads GF grammars from user-provided files, and the
generic grammar processor performs various tasks with the grammars:
* generation
* parsing
* translation
* type checking
* computation
* paraphrasing
* random generation
* syntax editing
GF particularly addresses four aspects of grammars:
* multilinguality (parallel grammars for different languages)
* semantics (semantic conditions of well-formedness, semantic
properties of expressions)
* grammar engineering (modularity, abstractions, libraries)
* embeddability in programs written in other languages (C,C++,
Haskell, Java, JavaScript)
