Indeed, in that case it isn't supposed to show up on the transition tracker. What I was trying to understand if that is deliberate and based on #873374 it seems so. pytsk statically links libtsk to workaround ABI breakage in libtsk13 4.4.2-1. Is libguestfs in buster also affected by that issue? libguestfs was built with a libtsk version post-ABI break, but depends on libtsk13 >= 4.4.0. > > The tracker only lists libguestfs as needing a rebuild.
