623	when a package is already installed, print the version as well	guest		"At the moment, when a package is already installed, '''cabal-install''' prints a message like the following:

{{{
> cabal install 'HaXml>1.3'
Resolving dependencies...
No packages to be installed. All the requested packages are already installed.
If you want to reinstall anyway then use the --reinstall flag.
}}}

It would be helpful to print the version(s) of the requested package(s) as well.

One case where this would be useful is to help the user realise that a preferred-version entry is in effect - in the case above, the version of !HaXml selected would be 1.13.3, while the latest version on hackage is 1.20.

The output could look like this:
{{{
> cabal install 'HaXml>1.3'
Resolving dependencies...
No packages to be installed. All the requested packages are already installed, in particular:
HaXml-1.13.3
If you want to reinstall anyway then use the --reinstall flag.
}}}
