Dear maintainer:

During a rebuild of all packages in unstable, your package failed to build.

Below you will find how the build ends (probably the most relevant part,
but not necessarily). If required, the full build log is available here:

https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/202509/

About the archive rebuild: The build was made on virtual machines from AWS,
using sbuild and a reduced chroot with only build-essential packages.

If you could not reproduce the bug please contact me privately, as I
am willing to provide ssh access to a virtual machine where the bug is
fully reproducible.

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use
reassign and add an affects on src:debian-policy, so that this is still
visible in the BTS web page for this package.

Thanks.

Hi,

see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1107821 (and dia even itself having it: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1114450, which you even reported yourself...)


Regards,


Rene

The bug was not initially reported against dia, it was reassigned
later, there is an explanation here if you are curious:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1114450#15

Can you help me by telling me the bugs that you know that should be
also reassigned to dia? (or just doing the reassign yourself).

Thanks.

reassign 1114090 dia
found 1114090 0.98+git20250126-2
affects 1114090 src:debian-policy
thanks

(I'm skipping the forcemerge because in case it's wrong it's a very
big mess to untangle).

Ok, I hope that the above commands should put things where they belong.

(Please let me know if they don't).

Thanks a lot.
