Dear maintainer(s),

[Warning in the flood my other bugs: failure in test]

With a recent upload of php-defaults the autopkgtest of
php-horde-imap-client fails in testing when that autopkgtest is run with
the binary packages of php-defaults from unstable. It passes when run
with only packages from testing. In tabular form:

                        pass            fail
php-defaults           from testing    93
php-horde-imap-client  from testing    2.30.6-1
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration of php-defaults to
testing [1]. Of course, php-defaults shouldn't just break your
autopkgtest (or even worse, your package), but it seems to me that the
change in php-defaults was intended and your package needs to update to
the new situation.

If this is a real problem in your package (and not only in your
autopkgtest), the right binary package(s) from php-defaults should
really add a versioned Breaks on the unfixed version of (one of your)
package(s). Note: the Breaks is nice even if the issue is only in the
autopkgtest as it helps the migration software to figure out the right
versions to combine in the tests.

Thank you for your bug report!

It looks like the issue is no more here. CI and
new upload did not show any regression. Thus
I am closing the ticket.

Thanks
