Hi,

openbabel FTBFS both in unstable (if a fix for #1073327 is applied) and
testing with the following:

99% tests passed, 2 tests failed out of 229

Total Test time (real) = 317.34 sec

The following tests FAILED:
	149 - test_tautomer_22 (Subprocess aborted)
	154 - test_tautomer_27 (Subprocess aborted)
Errors while running CTest

It is not clear when the FTBFS first started happening as these tests do
not seem to be covered by openbabel's autopkgtest.

I just tried, and it built for me.

Does it still fail for you?

Hi,

I can also not reproduce this, it builds fine for me (when the fix for
#1073327 is applied).

Andrius, are you going to commit that? I think OpenBabel needs a rebuild
for python3.12 anyway.

control: tags -1 + unreproducible
control: severity -1 normal

Maybe this issue was transient, nondeterministic or depends on a
specific environment. Thus I am demoting it to severity:normal and leave
it open for future reference. I will try to reproduce it myself later.

Yes, I will upload a fix for #1073327 soon.

Hello,

The bug did not resurface for a while, thus closing it.
