[Haskell-beginners] Build HTTP package error

[Emmanuel Touzery]

One more thing... For my HTTP needs I've been using without problems
Network.HTTP.Conduit:
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/http-conduit/1.2.1/doc/html/Network-HTTP-Conduit.html

but I didn't research in which ways these two packages differ.
