Are you installing libsnarf from a PPA?  If you are only using the standard 
Ubuntu repositories, this is a serious bug since it makes the package 
impossible to install, but I find this very unlikely.  What do you have in 
/etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d?  Also, what is the exact 
package name?  Ubuntu libraries always have numbers, like libsnarf1 unless 
you're installing the development headers.  On my 14.04.3 system, there is 
no such package when doing an apt-cache search.
