It looks like you still have a previous version of the package installed (i.e., from earlier this week). Try registering yesod-core and installing again: ghc-pkg unregister yesod-core --force && cabal install yesod

General note: hopefully we'll have a better process for betas in the future, this was really a trial run at things. Thanks for sticking it out and continuing to help test :)
