Yep!
I ran pkg-haskell-uupdate to look at what would happen, but I don't have 
much time this evening.
Seems like this new version depends on hashable-1.2, but it's only 
packaged up to 1.1. I got a build error with the test suite of 
hashable-1.2, I'll search this when I have free time. I can also say 
that patching yi.cabal to loosen the dependency lets yi build. (and 
that's all, perhaps it doesn't run properly.)

Gute Nacht,
Louis
