Comment (by igloo):

 I'm not sure that this is Hackage's job, although perhaps there could be a
 page somewhere saying how to find packages (in general) for different
 platforms (e.g. for Debian it would tell you to look for libghc6-foo-dev,
 and to talk to the Debian-Haskell mailing list if you can't find one).

 The main problem with putting it on particular packages' pages is that
 we'd have to know whether Debian (or, in general, any OS) actually has a
 package for it.
