Hi I am on Windows XP SP3. The unix chain fails to install and therefore i
cannot install Yi.

This is how it is failing. Any ideas on how to get it working?

The vty UI is not supported on Windows, unfortunately. You'll need to
install Gtk2Hs and the Pango UI. I'm not sure if there's anything you
need to do to install Gtk2Hs (on unix machines, it's just cabal
install-able), but after that you should be able to run this:

$ cabal install yi -f-vty -fpango

(That disables the vty UI, enables the pango UI.)

Actually I cannot install Yi on mint debian either. Cabal version doesn't
match.

I did cabal install cabal-install
then
cabal upgrade cabal

but get this error when trying to install Yi

Installing library in /home/sayth/.cabal/lib/Cabal-1.10.1.0/ghc-6.12.1
Registering Cabal-1.10.1.0...
sayth@homegroup ~ $ cabal install yi
Resolving dependencies...
cabal: dependencies conflict: ghc-6.12.1 requires Cabal ==1.8.0.2 however
Cabal-1.8.0.2 was excluded because yi-0.6.3.0 requires Cabal ==1.10.*
