Bug Description

Installing the amd64 version of the gitit package on Ubuntu 12.04 (Beta 1) no longer seems to pull in libghc-filestore-data as a dependency. The program then complains of a missing file (found in libghc-filestore-data) when run to create a repository:

$ gitit
gitit: /usr/share/filestore-0.4.0.4/extra/post-update: openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such file or directory)

Installing the libghc-filestore-data package manually resolves the issue: gitit creates a repository and starts as normal.

# aptitude install libghc-filestore-data

I don't know why, but apparently libghc-filestore-data dependency is present on i386 but not on amd64:

BTW, I forgot to remind it here, but this problem should be fixed in latest sid version.
