Thanks for your reply, Alan.

I didn't do a find/xargs/grep for version_tuple!  Drat, bad
troubleshooting. But in any case, even converting that file to YAML doesn't
seem to help, I just get more errors.

Another interesting thing, the format of /etc/cobbler/version in 2.6.3 is
not in YAML either.

Whatever. This is only affecting the Web console, so I can stay in business
while I stand up 2.6 on a new server and replicate.
