Maybe it is easier to just get ghc-6.6.1 - it contains Data.ByteString & Co in base library. Also, for cabal-ized libs (which is quickly becoming the rule), you can install with --user flag and give it a directory where you have write permission. On a different note: I've been wondering how difficult it would be to re-write Parsec so that it doesn't act on a /list/ of tokens but on a Sequence (defined in Data.Collections from collections package). Because this would mean one could use String as well as ByteString.
