I will file this sort of report as a wishlist severity bug in the future. Sorry for overstepping. FWIW, my original reasoning for filing this bug went like this: For the sake of ensuring bootstrappability of any release N of Debian by the previous Debian release N-1, the build-dependencies of any release N source package ought to be satisfiable solely by some combination of (A) binary packages from the release N-1 binary archive (B) binary packages built from release N source packages using build-dependencies consisting solely of some combination of A and B In order to aid in this bootstrapping process, the allowed versions of the declared build dependencies of release N source packages should be constrained such that combinations of A and B which satisify the declared dependencies but fail to build the package are eliminated. Again, I'm sorry for being a nuisance and I will try to do better in the future. -- Plasma

Source: markdown-it-py Version: 2.1.0-2 Severity: serious Tags: ftbfs patch Dear Maintainer, markdown-it-py fails to build from source with versions of flit earlier than 3.4 according to the package's pyproject.toml.[0] Attached is a patch to fix the declared build dependency on flit in the debian/control file to match the supported versions listed in the package's pyproject.toml file. [0] However, I was able to get markdown-it-py to build with flit 3.3.0-1~bpo11+1, so maybe the value in the pyproject.toml file is higher than it strictly needs to be. Regardless of what the actual exact minimum value is, I can confirm that flit 3.0.0 is insufficient. -- Plasma diff -Nru markdown-it-py-2.1.0/debian/control markdown-it-py-2.1.0/debian/control --- markdown-it-py-2.1.0/debian/control 2022-05-20 14:21:22.0 -0500 +++ markdown-it-py-2.1.0/debian/control 2022-06-18 17:49:09.0 -0500 @@ -4,7 +4,8 @@ Maintainer: Debian Python Team Uploaders: Emmanuel Arias , Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 13), - flit, + flit (>= 3.4), + flit (<< 4), pybuild-plugin-pyproject, python3-all, python3-attr,
