Cabal Build/run/install fails on instantiation but there are no additional installation instructions to inform the user of required dependencies.

It seems that the build instructions are missing directives to properly compile the package in the latest cabal version. Manual manipulation of the HsYaml build dependencies results in further dependecy spirals without an easy resolution.

@severian1778 thank you for bringing up this topic. The easiest option is to start using the kda-tool from the pre-build binaries, available under the release page #https://github.com/kadena-io/kda-tool/releases

If you want to build the project fromt its sources, please go with a nix setup, that is:

nix build

or

nix develop
cabal build

I hope this information helps you?
