Dear Maintainer,
The upload of openmpi (2.0.1-3) has triggered an uncoordinated
transition (#836917). Unfortunately the version constraint on the
library package from the -dev package is not binNMU safe causing it not
to be installable when the package version contains a binNMU version
(+bN), this prevents the rebuilds of freefem++ & petsc:
freefem++ build-depends on:
- libhypre-dev:amd64
libhypre-dev depends on missing:
- libhypre-2.8.0b:amd64 (< 2.8.0b-3+1~)
petsc build-depends on:
- libhypre-dev:amd64 (>= 2.4.0)
libhypre-dev depends on missing:
- libhypre-2.8.0b:amd64 (< 2.8.0b-3+1~)
The attached patch turn the -dev package into an arch:any package with a
(= ${binary:Version) version requirement for the library package which
ensures that the same version of the -dev & library packages are
installed and which supports +bN binary versions for binNMUs.
Please apply the patch in the next revision of hypre to unblock the
rebuilds of freefem++, petsc, and their reverse dependencies for the
ongoing openmpi transition.
Kind Regards,
Bas
