Thank you, that worked. I wonder two things: 1) How to downgrade cabal packages? Just installing tagsoup-0.6 and removing every trace of tagsoup-0.8 somehow didn't work for me. cabal still insisted that there should be a tagsoup-0.8. 2) Is the commonly used version-scheming >= XYZ ideal? Maybe package maintainers should depend on exactly one version they know that works? I mean how can you guarantee, that every future version of a package will work?

cabal unpack hxt-8.3.2
open hxt.cabal in kate, change the range of the required tagsoup to (>= 0.6 && < 0.7)
cd hxt-8.3.2 cabal install
perhaps not the _best_ solution, but quick and it usually works
