How to upgrade Yesod to the latest version?

After I did a 

cabal install yesod

I did a

yesod version

But it outputs 0.10.2.1. The latest version I believe is 1.3

How do I upgrade to the latest version? I'm trying to set yesod on an Ubuntu server.

Add cabal installed packages to your path:

export PATH="$HOME/.cabal/bin":$PATH

into the terminal.

This means you can run yesod as yesod rather than:

~/.cabal/bin/yesod

To deal with installed packages there is ghc-pkg, so to remove yesod

ghc-pkg unregister yesod

This don't remove executables, so

rm ~/.cabal/bin/yesod

Then update the package list

cabal update

Then cabal install will select the latest version compatible (based on the "base" package dependency) with your ghc version (if I am not wrong)

cabal install yesod
