Is there also a darcs repository?

I want to note, that storablevector requires Quickcheck only for tests. In 
the darcs repository, this is better handled by the Cabal file:
    http://code.haskell.org/storablevector/
  There you get the dependency on QuickCheck (1) only when building with 
buildTests flag set.

  Now I have to get NoSlow running, but surprisingly it needs cairo and 
gtk, which I assume are not so easy to install.
