I can't get this import to work in haskell.
import Network.HTTP.Conduit
When I try to compile I get the following error:
$ ghc Play.hs
Play.hs:1:8:
Could not find module `Network.HTTP.Conduit'
Use -v to see a list of the files searched for.
The same error occurs if I try to load the file in GHCI.
I have installed the latest version of http-conduit via cabal. Here is the output from cabal:
$ cabal -list http-conduit
* http-conduit
Synopsis: HTTP client package with conduit interface and HTTPS support.
Default available version: 1.8.2
Installed versions: 1.6.0.4, 1.8.2

If it might make a difference, I am using Ubuntu 12.04.
Any ideas why this won't import?

I was unable to fix the problem directly. But, I was able to "nuke" the installed packages and start fresh.
rm -rf ~/.ghc/i386-linux-7.4.1
cabal install http-conduit
After this, it worked fine. You will have to re-install all of your other packages as well.

FWIW I used "cabal install http-conduit" then I got the following prompt:
Building http-conduit-2.3.8 (lib)
Installing http-conduit-2.3.8 (lib)
Completed http-conduit-2.3.8 (lib)
Warning:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@ WARNING: Installation might not be completed as desired! @
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Without flags, the command "cabal install" doesn't expose libraries in a
usable manner. You might have wanted to run "cabal install --lib http-conduit".
Then I tried loading my file and got this in ghc:
Prelude> :l Main.hs
[1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Main.hs, interpreted )
Main.hs:9:1: error:
Could not load module ‘Network.HTTP.Conduit’
It is a member of the hidden package ‘http-conduit-2.3.8’.
You can run ‘:set -package http-conduit’ to expose it.
(Note: this unloads all the modules in the current scope.)
Use -v (or `:set -v` in ghci) to see a list of the files searched for.

9 | import Network.HTTP.Conduit (simpleHttp)
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Failed, no modules loaded.
So "cabal install --lib http-conduit" fixes this.
