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:python-lua, so that this is still
visible in the BTS web page for this package.

Thanks.

Like the error message already says, the source can not be compiled,
because it defines the type 'bool' and 'bool' is a keyword with
'-std=c23' onwards. To fix this we can either remove the typedef or
check if __STDC_VERSION__ < 202311L, see patch below. I tested this
patch on Ubuntu resolute.

Hi!

While rebuilding the python related packages against the Python 3.15rc2
version I ran into this FTBFS [1].

I think this package is a good candidate to request removal: it has no
reverse dependecies; upstream is inactive, and it's the same person as
the Debian maintainer; and the uploaded code doesn't match the code in
the git package.

To be able to get it back to building, I had to:
- Add a patch to use <stdbool.h>
- Update a test script that was using old ctypes

I've applied these fixes in the sandbox [2] to verify that it builds
successfully, this should either be applied in Debian to get it back to
a healthy state, or ask for the removal of the package.

Happy hacking,
