Well that's strange...  No errors...  I also tried installing each
version on top of the last in a clean sid chroot.  Maybe the bug is
only triggered when 0~git20150512-1 was built using particular (old)
versions of debhelper and/or when the upgrade to 0~git20161123-1 was
performed using particular versions of dpkg?

If anyone can provide a copy of (or link to) the old
yasnippet-snippets_0~git20150512-1_all.deb I would be very
appreciative!

Cheers,
Nicholas
