Is there a way to search for Hackage packages that depend on package X (for any package X)? It would be great to find examples of how a package is used in the wild to get an idea of its capabilities. (Also useful for [attempting to] resolve cabal hell.)
Note: it looks like http://packdeps.haskellers.com/ is looking for a new organization to care for and feed the service. In the meantime, try https://hackage.haskell.org/package/packdeps, if you can convince it to build.
You can use Michael Snoyman's packdeps. For example, this link will tell you all the package that depend on the package text
. You can just edit that link with the package name to get the reverse dependencies.
