Dear maintainer:

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

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

https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/202608/

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 cannot 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:duecredit, so that this is still
visible in the BTS web page for this package.

Thanks.

Hi!

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

The problem was caused by citeproc moving hardvard1 to harvard-cite-them-right. This is not a drop in replacement, but I have created a patch that adapts duecredit's tests to this new style.

This patch should probably be forwarded upstream.

I've applied this fix in the sandbox [2] to verify that duecredit builds successfully, it should also be applied in Debian to get the package back to a healthy state.

Happy hacking,

We believe that the bug you reported is fixed in the latest version of
duecredit, which is due to be installed in the Debian FTP archive.

A summary of the changes between this version and the previous one is
attached.

Thank you for reporting the bug, which will now be closed.  If you
have further comments please address them to 1145151@bugs.debian.org,
and the maintainer will reopen the bug report if appropriate.
