hdirect is here:

http://hackage.haskell.org/package/hdirect

however, as shown by the following terminal session,
cabal can't find it.  What should I do to insteall hdirect?

~/download/haskell/libs $ cabal -V
cabal-install version 0.6.0
using version 1.6.0.1 of the Cabal library
~/download/haskell/libs $ uname -a

~/download/haskell/libs $ cabal install happy --dry-run

In order, the following would be installed (use -v for more details):
