Motivation for this change

This and #46766 fix the build for taffybar on 8.2

I'm not entirely sure what the reason for needing the override is

Ah yeah, I intentionally put it there because I don't know why that override is needed. Will update if I find out

Looks like the authors have a problem with haskell-gi-overloading-1.0 on GHC 8.2. From the gi-glib cabal file:

      -- https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14382
      if impl(ghc == 8.2.*)
              build-depends: haskell-gi-overloading == 0.0

Should we just unilaterally set haskell-gi-overloading to 0.0 for GHC 8.2.2?

Can't be bothered with this right now. It's almost not worth fixing these couple packages when I know lots more would fail. A mass fix would be nicer.
