Changes:
 robotraconteur (1.2.9-1) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * New upstream version 1.2.9
     - Fix FTBFS with Boost 1.92 due to intrusive_ptr_release ADL lookup
       failing in constexpr intrusive_ptr destructor (Closes: #1150489)
     - Fix FTBFS with OpenSSL 4.0 (Closes: #1140417)
     - Fix FTBFS with SWIG 4.5, which removed PyInt_AsLong
     - Fix generator server sending duplicate error responses
     - Load libusb, libdbus and libbluetooth by runtime SONAME so the
       development packages are not needed at runtime
     - Discover Linux hardware transport devices from misc-class drivers
