Currently will not build due to printfd-clients package build failure.

@VorpalGun I backported 032cde77, thanks for the hint

The bug with PyYAML below seems to have been fixed already, but no new package release has been made. I'm switching to using python-validity-git for now. A suitable patch could be backported quite easily though (commit 032cde77)

As of recent system updates this package no longer works. The service fails with the following on startup:
