Hi Maintainer Your package has a dependency, build-dependency or autopkgtest dependency on python3-numba. Numba is currently not compatible with Python 3.12, although support is expected in the upcoming 0.59 release. Please drop these dependencies for now, so we can proceed with the Python 3.12 transition. As Numba often seems to lag behind major Python releases, please consider using Recommends instead of Depends to avoid having to make similar changes in future. Regards Graham
python-sparse looks to have a hard dependency on numba, there's lots of functions tagged with @numba.jit, several modules start with import numba. Given how hard it is for numba to update, I wish upstream would keep numba an optional dependency. I should probably remove the <!nocheck> since it seems required now. I'm not sure how to help with the python3.12 transition though. Diane

Thanks a lot. I'll wait for debci whether bug #1055847 persists.
I wonder whether we could close simply #1058485 since the test is passing
with current numba.
Kind regards
Andreas.
