Perhaps for packages that are installed but not re-installable via Cabal (like cairo, base, ghc etc) it should say something. Do you have any specific suggestions?
Well that explains it then! I had no idea it listed stuff not available from Hackage. I've been using `cabal list | grep foo` to search for packages but that's obviously not optimal, it seems. I don't know what would clarify the matter. An "available from Hackage: (yes/no)" field? Or a flag to pass to `cabal list` to show Hackage stuff only?
