Version: 0.7.8-5
Severity: normal

We hope to upgrade python3-yaml (aka pyyaml) to version 6 before the
freeze, per #1008262

Your package appears to use `yaml.load()` without specifying a `Loader=`
argument, which will become an error in pyyaml version 6. This should
have emitted a warning message since version 5.1 (from 2019).

In most cases this can be fixed by replacing `yaml.load` with
`yaml.safe_load`, unless the ability for yaml to create arbitrary python
objects is desirable.
