Hi,
I am trying to learn yampa and downloaded the package, also containing afrob from the homepage. I installed arrows and HGL over cabal.
I think you should have installed Yampa via cabal, too, cabal install Yampa would've gotten you Yampa-0.9.2.3
Now I go into the afrob directory and type make, I get:
make -C src make[1]: Entering directory `/home/ls/tmp/Yampa-0.9.1/afrob-0.2/src' make -C Common make[2]: Entering directory `/home/ls/tmp/Yampa-0.9.1/afrob-0.2/src/Common' ghc -M -optdep-f -optdep.hs_dependences -optdep--exclude-directory=/usr/local/lib/ghc/imports/arrow:/usr/local/l ib/ghc/imports/afrp -fglasgow-exts -O -package lang -i/usr/local/lib/ghc/imports/arrow:/usr/local/lib/ghc/imports/afrp AFrob.hs AFrobDiagnostics.hs AFrobPhysicalDimensions.hs AFrobRobotIO.hs AFrobRobotSimFake.hs || (rm -f .hs_dependences ; exit 1)

So I suppose I am missing the "lang" package ?!? How do I get it?
I think maybe "lang" was a package way back in ancient times. From a short look at the imports in afrob, it might be what now is haskell98. Considering the homepage says "Version 0.9.1 is a minor update of 0.9, including a version of HGL that should compile with GHC 5.04.1" I don't think it will be very easy to get it going now, too many API changes in the meantime. It also mentions the package concurrent, which doesn't exist either. You can try making it work by removing explicit packages from the ghc- invocations in the makefiles and adding the --make flag
Thanks! Nathan
