Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported absence of the propellor package on hoogle.haskell.org and compare it with a package that is available. Then trace how Hoogle discovers or indexes Hackage packages. Done means propellor and similarly missing packages are searchable, with a focused regression check if the relevant test entry point can be located.
