It is actually also in the avro-tools-1.7.3 JAR (I checked before adding it).
The problem was that there was another (older) Avro JAR somewhere in the classpath of one of the projects loaded, so that did not have the Snappy CODEC and, having taken priority, it caused the exception, while I had added everything correctly in the code I was running.
