Dear Maintainer,

I was looking at why haskell-dpkg is FTBFS in Ubuntu and noticed that the
package is designed for earlier versions of libdpkg.  It assumes that
'struct pkginfo' has 'name' and 'next' members.

As far as I can see, nowadays, it has an 'arch_next' member which I assume
is the analog to 'next'.  Not sure what the analog to 'name' is.

It should be updated to build against the version of libdpkg in testing.
