I think there's something else going on. pynormaliz 2.22+ds-2 was uploaded very soon after normaliz 3.10.5+ds-3. Looking at the builds logs of pynormaliz [1], I see: Get:67 https://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main amd64 libnormaliz-dev amd64 3.10.4+ds-1 [2241 kB] Get:87 https://incoming.debian.org/debian-buildd buildd-sid/main arm64 libnormaliz-dev arm64 3.10.5+ds-3 [2199 kB] Get:86 https://incoming.debian.org/debian-buildd buildd-sid/main armel libnormaliz-dev armel 3.10.5+ds-3 [2465 kB] Get:71 https://incoming.debian.org/debian-buildd buildd-sid/main armhf libnormaliz-dev armhf 3.10.5+ds-3 [2497 kB] Get:67 https://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main i386 libnormaliz-dev i386 3.10.4+ds-1 [2664 kB] Get:67 https://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main mips64el libnormaliz-dev mips64el 3.10.5+ds-3 [2621 kB] Get:67 https://deb.debian.org/debian sid/main ppc64el libnormaliz-dev ppc64el 3.10.4+ds-1 [2387 kB] Get:87 https://incoming.debian.org/debian-buildd buildd-sid/main s390x libnormaliz-dev s390x 3.10.5+ds-3 [2515 kB] In other words, pynormaliz 2.22+ds-2 was built against normaliz 3.10.4+ds-1 on amd64, i386 and ppc64el. It is probably not a coincidence that these are the architectures that seem to have autopkgtest regressions with normaliz 3.10.5+ds-3 [2]. ∙ ∙ autopkgtest for pynormaliz/2.21+ds-1: amd64: Regression ♻ (reference ♻), i386: Regression ♻ (reference ♻), ppc64el: Regression ♻ (reference ♻) Does pynormaliz need some stricter build, and or, runtime dependencies on normaliz?
