We're rolling our own opencv debians at this point they come from this
sourcedep https://kforge.ros.org/rublee/opencv23debs we can talk about
expanding our custom builds from ubuntu to debian. We're using the debian
git-buildpackage toolchain.

I think these are seperate. The first is that gazebo_worlds does not have a
rosdep rule for yaml in it's search path. This is possibly a typo looking
for yaml-cpp. And the seconds is testing if yaml-cpp is installed from the
sourcedep yet. The sourcedep is hosted at
https://kforge.ros.org/rosrelease/viewvc/sourcedeps/yaml-cpp/

This is because it now supports multiple package managers which requires
things to be installed in dependency order, instead of being able to batch
them all at once.
