Dear maintainer(s),
With a recent upload of cmake the autopkgtest of abseil fails in testing
when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of cmake from
unstable. It passes when run with only packages from testing. In tabular
form:
pass fail
cmake from testing 3.18.2-1
abseil from testing 0~20200225.2-3
all others from testing from testing
I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. The output
contains a warning that's written to stderr. By default that fails a
test. If you can't fix the underlaying cause, you can have the output to
stderr ignored by adding an allow-stderr restriction to the test
specification.
Currently this regression is blocking the migration of cmake to testing
[1]. Of course, cmake shouldn't just break your autopkgtest (or even
worse, your package), but it seems to me that the change in cmake was
intended and your package needs to update to the new situation.
If this is a real problem in your package (and not only in your
autopkgtest), the right binary package(s) from cmake should really add a
versioned Breaks on the unfixed version of (one of your) package(s).
Note: the Breaks is nice even if the issue is only in the autopkgtest as
it helps the migration software to figure out the right versions to
combine in the tests.

The package name passed to `find_package_handle_standard_args` (Threads)

problems in calling code that expects `find_package` result variables
