Generally this error means you had a non-packaged version of pyyaml
installed before and the package system declines to over-write admin
installed files. From man pycentral:
/etc/python/debian_config is searched for the attribute
overwrite-local. If set to 1, or True, existing files in
/usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-pack‐
ages are overwritten with symbolic links to the pycentral install area.
The default is to abort the installation of a package, when files
already exist. This behaviour may be useful, when python libraries were
manually installed into this directory.
So you can over-ride this default.
