 This is a feature request.

 I don't know enough to know if this is a good idea, maybe there's a better
 way of tracking down which debian package to get for a given hackage
 package.  Maybe you could also give corresponding package names for other
 operating systems.  All I know is that I wanted parsec, it didn't come
 with ubuntu ghc, and I couldn't tell how to get it without asking on
 #haskell.  This could have been resolved by a sentence on the hackageDB
 page for parsec.
