Can you please investigate the situation and figure out how to resolve
it?
I'm no haskell expert, but to me the dependency looks vestigal. Grepping
the source tree for "pcre" finds a mention in the misfortune.cabal
file but no mentions in the actual code, and there are no corresponding
binary dependencies.
In raspbian, I removed the reference from misfortune.cabel, removed the build-dependencies on libghc-regex-pcre* and also (for unrelated reasons) removed the build-dependency on ghc-doc. After doing so I was able to successfully build the package.
