[fixed] New libsnappy1v5 = 1.2.0-1 cause lookup error

[hendrikL]

Programs using qtwebengine (like quasselclient, chromium, nextcloud, kmail ...) stop working with the following error:

symbol lookup error: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5WebEngineCore.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZN6snappy11RawCompressEPKcmPcPm

This is caused by new libsnappy1v5 = 1.2.0-1

Downgrading fixed it for me.
