can't detect gtk2hs-buildtools because it is looking for gtk2hsC2hs.pc

[clinty]

there are situations wherein the aptFile function should not append ".pc"

[ddssff]

Urgh - do you have any more guidance on this?

[clinty]

Maybe if you can't find the .pc file, find the path to the binary and then pass that to dpkg -S , or assume it's in /usr/bin and pass that to apt-file?

[ddssff]

What is the .pc extension? Can I just remove it?

[clinty]

It's for pkg-config.. I'm not sure what it might be working for if anything..
