Description
There should be a way to know why a package/module was installed (downloaded) showing which packages depend on it.
We could add an argument to spago ls deps , so e.g. if you want to know all the transitive dependencies of halogen you'd do spago ls deps --transitive halogen
In other package managers there is API called why for example yarn why package-name.
