Hello Bill, thanks for your message. I was trying to fix the issue when you sent the report. I isolated the issue as you did.
Solution 1) would the solution on box with one architecture, not on box with
multi-architectures.
The package test relies DirectoriesPackagePrograms gap procedure (see
debian/tests/makecheck.tst )
In Sid environment as provided by autopkgtest(1),
DirectoriesPackagePrograms( "guava" )
gives
[ dir("/usr/share/gap/pkg/guava/bin/"),
dir("/usr/share/gap/pkg/guava/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-default64-kv8/") ]
which is in agreement with your comments.
However only the last dir[ectory] may work on muti-architecture boxes.
Here we would need a "/usr/share/gap/pkg/guava/bin/<arch-triplet> between the
two current ones:
can gap support this ?
Meanwhile (before reading your report) I gave a new try by imposing gap >= 4.12
.
Best wishes,
Jerome

Package: gap-guava-bin Version: 3.17+ds-2 Severity: normal Dear Debian Science Maintainers, gap-guava-bin includes the directory /usr/lib/gap/pkg/guava/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-default64-kv7 but does not depend on gap-kernel-7. 1) As far as I can see, the guava binaries are not linked against the gap-kernel so are independent of it, so the binaries should just go to /usr/lib/gap/pkg/guava/bin/ 2) the new gap kernel 4.12 is gap-kernel-8 and will not find binaries in x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-default64-kv7 3) if for some reason, you really need x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-default64-kvN, you need to depend on gap-kernel-N.
