Yes; testing in a personal chroot confirms that adjusting its build
settings is both necessary and sufficient. (I don't recommend turning
this flag on blindly.)
I'm not sure if this is desirable in proj, I think PROJ.4 is among "most
programs" for which "the excess precision does only good".
It's probably better to make test_lambert_azimuthal_equal_area less
strict.
The impact of this change in proj affects many reverse dependencies and
users due to its central role in the geospatial ecosystem.
I'll need to discuss this with PROJ.4 upstream before I can consider
incorporating the suggested change in the proj package.
If you need to fix the test_lambert_azimuthal_equal_area failure for
python-cartopy to be included in stretch, you'll need to handle this in
the that package since the discussion with upstream won't reach a
conclusion before the hard freeze next Sunday (when many of us will be
at FOSDEM).
Kind Regards,
