Re: qiime REMOVED from testing



Hi,

I hope this is the correct list to ask this questions - if not please
redirect me (and also please CC me in your reply). [debian-mentors in
CC as well - may be some other people have a similar problem.]

I know that qiime has a serious bug (#731190) where I was seeking for
help six weeks ago with no real result.  So I would have expected to
become kicked from testing because of this bug which would be fine.

However, it is kicked because of an "old libffi" dependency.  I realised
that it had in fact

   libffi6 (>= 3.0.4)

in its dependencies which was included via

   ${shlibs:Depends}  or
   ${misc:Depends}

but I have no idea, how to prevent this.  Would a rebuild be sufficient
to get the "new libffi" dependency or do I need to do more?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
