Source: astrometry.net
Version: 0.98+dfsg-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs sid forky
Justification: Policy 4.9
User: [email protected]
Usertags: swig-4.5.0
Dear Maintainer,
The astrometry.net package FTBFS with swig 4.5.0, which is currently in
unstable. An excerpt of the build log is shown below.
This is due to the removal of the Python 2 compatibility macros in version
4.5.0. According to the SWIG authors, these macros were retained in the
generated code (pyhead.swg) solely for user typemaps. Any typemap using these
macros must be updated to call the Python 3 C API directly.
Best,
Rafael Laboissière
