On Debian side, yaml-cpp lib is also available with versions: - 0.5.2 for stable, testing & unstable - 0.5.1 for jessie (old-stable) which is under long term support until end of june 2020.
Wheezy will be definitely end of life in 2 days, so there's no need to support yaml-cpp in version 0.3 for Debian.
