Right, I did the 'apt-get update', I just didn't bother to include it in
the fragment I posted.
The actual problem was that I was missing a required update to apt
itself (specifically, a correction to the default config file) which is
not mentioned anywhere on YDL's 2.3 update page. Clearly other users
already knew about this, though I'm not sure how.
