Yasnippet stops compile error highlighting

Question

I have been compiling my C++ project using M-x compile which I like because it provides highlighted links to my errors:

However after adding:

(add-to-list 'load-path
         "~/.emacs.d/plugins/yasnippet")
(require 'yasnippet)
(yas-global-mode 1)

to my .emacs file this no longer works:

I'd really like to use yasnippet and have my compile errors highlighted, anyone have any idea how to fix this? I'm using GNU Emacs 24.3.1

Answer 1

As mentioned in the issue here, this was fixed by updating yasnippet to the version from github. The version on the GNU ELPA repo (0.8.0) is quite old.
