Installing Haskell package yst

I'd really like to try out yst, but I'm having a tough time installing it.  It's not in the Arch repos, and doesn't seem to be available in the [haskell] repos either.  "cabal install" fails due to issues with dependency versioning, and not having used Haskell myself, I don't know how to solve this.  Is there any reasonable way I can install this package?

I don't mind waiting a week or two if the dependency issues are likely to resolve themselves.  I also don't mind a bad solution that will be hard to upgrade, as long as it's reasonably easy to uninstall when the time comes.

Re: Installing Haskell package yst

According to the hackage page [1], this package depends on pandoc. Pandoc does not build with the current version of GHC last time I checked (which is also the reason it was removed from [haskell-core]). If you really want to use it right now, you'll have to build the git version of pandoc.
