E: libghc-gi-gsk-dev: custom-library-search-path RUNPATH /usr/lib/haskell-packages/ghc/lib/x86_64-linux-ghc-9.10.3-inplace [usr/lib/haskell-packages/ghc/lib/x86_64-linux-ghc-9.10.3-inplace/libHSgi-gsk-4.0.9-1Rv8C7M8WEKJQvzKRw1K5-ghc9.10.3.so]
N: 
N:   The binary or shared library sets RPATH or RUNPATH. This overrides the
N:   normal library search path, possibly interfering with local policy and
N:   causing problems for multilib, among other issues.
N:   
N:   The only time a binary or shared library in a Debian package should set
N:   RPATH or RUNPATH is if it is linked to private shared libraries in the
N:   same package. In that case, place those private shared libraries in
N:   /usr/lib/*package*. Libraries used by binaries in other packages should be
N:   placed in /lib or /usr/lib as appropriate, with a proper SONAME, in which
N:   case RPATH/RUNPATH is unnecessary.
N:   
N:   To fix this problem, look for link lines like:
N:   
N:       gcc test.o -o test -Wl,--rpath,/usr/local/lib
N:   
N:   or
N:   
N:       gcc test.o -o test -R/usr/local/lib
N:   
N:   and remove the -Wl,--rpath or -R argument. You can also use the chrpath
N:   utility to remove the RPATH.
N: 
N:   Please refer to https://wiki.debian.org/RpathIssue for details.

W: libghc-gi-gsk-dev: copyright-without-copyright-notice
N: 
N:   The copyright file for this package does not appear to contain a copyright
N:   notice. You should copy the copyright notice from the upstream source (or
N:   add one of your own for a native package). A copyright notice must consist
N:   of Copyright, Copr., or the Unicode symbol of C in a circle followed by
N:   the years and the copyright holder. A copyright notice is not required for
N:   a work to be copyrighted, but Debian requires the copyright file include
N:   the authors and years of copyright, and including a valid copyright notice
N:   is the best way to do that. Examples:
N:   
N:     Copyright YYYY Firstname Lastname <address@example.com>
N:     Copr. YYYY-YYYY Firstname Lastname <address@example.com>
N:     © YYYY,YYYY Firstname Lastname <address@example.com>
N:   
N:   If the package is in the public domain rather than copyrighted, be sure to
N:   mention "public domain" in the copyright file. Please be aware that this
N:   is very rare and not the same as a DFSG-free license. True public domain
N:   software is generally limited to such special cases as a work product of a
N:   United States government agency.
