Thanks Trupti. Do you consider the following as a good summary of your analysis: there is no structural problem in the new OpenBLAS on ppc64el (just slightly numerically different results, within the usual tolerance of numerical software), and as a consequence the adjustment needs to be done in the testsuite of the affected reverse dependencies (xtensor-blas, gemma and openmolcas)? (that seems clear from what you said of src:xtensor-blas and src:openmolcas, less so for the case of src:gemma, hence my question) Paul: if my statement above is correct, what would be the right course of action? -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Sébastien Villemot ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian Developer ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ https://sebastien.villemot.name ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀ https://www.debian.org
