[this bug is NOT targeted to the upcoming trixie release]

seen when planning the libxml 2.14.x transition, at
https://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/a/auto-multiple-choice/questing/amd64

please note that it's not easily reproducible in Debian experimental,
needs "some" rebuilt packages.

AMC-detect from auto-multiple-choice depends on libspatialite8t64 library through OpenCV (libopencv-imgcodecs410), so
maybe an additional rebuild of some of those packages can fix the test?

Dear Matthias,

Regarding my last message, can you confirm that the problem comes from auto-multiple-choice, and give some insight to
help reproducing it?

Regards,
Alexis Bienvenüe.

It seems that auto-multiple-choice can be built in unstable with no problem, where libxml2 version is 2.14.5, so I'm
closing this bug.
Feel free to reopen it if the issue can be reproduced.

Regards,
Alexis.
