Thanks for the report! The root cause seems to be golang-github-cenkalti-backoff switching to v5 of the package. It looks like v4 is now being provided by golang-github-cenkalti-backoff-v4-dev instead. Curiously, the golang-github-cenkalti-backoff 5.0.3-2 changelog entry mentions this: > - All reverse build dependencies now usees > golang-github-cenkalti-backoff-v4-dev or > is not in testing This does not seem to be the case for geoipupdate, though. Perhaps it was missed because it's in contrib, and only main was checked? Cc'ing Simon who did that upload, in case it informs future migrations of his. In any case, upstream geoiupdate has already switched to v5, and I've been waiting for it to show up in Debian in order to upload 7.1.1. So this is actually great to see and an easy enough fix :) Regards, Faidon
