Yi has been removed from testing because it is unmaintained (see [1] and
[2]) and doesn't work with newer versions of Haskell libraries available
on Debian testing. If nothing changes, I intend to completely remove it
from Debian. As far as I know, no one from Debian is working on this,
since it needs an upstream maintainer to adopt and fix it first.
