Yes, the build-dependency is unnecessary. Please consider https://salsa.debian.org/debichem-team/gabedit/-/merge_requests/1 (also attached as a patch, if you prefer those). I've verified using diffoscope that adding this patch does not alter the contents of the binary package. (<3 reproducible builds!) I have not otherwise tested the binary package; sorry, I have no idea what gabedit is or what it does, other than "probably something to do with chemistry" :-) gabedit will be removed from testing soon if this bug is not resolved, and I'm trying to remove pangox-compat from Debian entirely during the bookworm cycle. smcv
