Dear Maintainer,

Version 1.5-1 is available for most architectures, but not amd64.  Combined with
the fact that libquantlib 1.5-1 is the latest version for amd64 unstable, this
creates a situation that is causing segmentation faults in my python scripts.
For now, I have downgraded libquantlib0 to 1.4-2+b1 to correct the problems.

Thank you.

Hm. Looking at https://packages.debian.org/unstable/quantlib-python I do see
that. Odd.

You could just build the package locally.  Contact me off-list if you're
unsure how.

A closer look reveals that this failed with a compiler error on amd64:

Thanks for taking a look at this.

Interestingly, I followed your advice and built the amd64 package myself
and it all went well without error after I installed all of the packages in
the build dependencies.  I saw many of the same notes and warnings, but the
compiler just kept going and finished with a perfectly
good quantlib-python_1.5-1_amd64.deb file.
