Hi Tom.
Please install `gtk2hs-buildtools` first and check that the install directory is in your PATH (e.g. HOME/.cabal/bin).
The most likely explanation for your problems seems to be that while you have the buildtools installed, you haven't actually added $HOME/.cabal/bin to your search path, so it isn't found by cabal. This might also hold for the new version of cabal-install you installed, which installs a "cabal" binary to $HOME/.cabal/bin. But if you don't have that in your search path, and have another "cabal" binary installed in, say /usr/bin, then you'll still run the old version and get the message about the newer version again. Cheers, Andres
