Yes, QtHaskell [1] has been inactive for three years, as far as I can tell.

However, there are newish bindings [2] for the Qt Quick declarative UI
stuff that's appeared in recent Qt versions -- see the package "hsqml"
on hackage [3]. It hasn't had any new uploads to hackage since last
year, but there was activity on its repo as recently as yesterday
[4]. I've yet to see any applications built on it, but it looks
exciting.
