Bug#919413: ready for unstable
I ran ratt, 31 of 729 packages genuinely FTBFS due to doxygen 1.8.15.
More details here:
https://salsa.debian.org/paolog-guest/doxygen/wikis/ratt-job-for-doxygen-1.8.15
All these failures are related to an issue with texlive-base 2018.20190126-1:
https://bugs.debian.org/920621
and ultimately due to the latex tabu extension:
https://github.com/tabu-fixed/tabu/issues/1
https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen/issues/6769
With the help of Hilmar Preuße I patched doxygen so that is builds, and
(almost always) generates tex files that are parseable by pdflatex from
texlive-base 2018.20190126-1.
This at the cost of producing ugly-looking PDFs, while we wait for a
properly fixed tabu.
With those fixes 20 of the failing packages above build fine.
toulbar2 now FTBFS due to new latex even without new doxygen.
We are left with 10 (in order of decreasing popcon):
hwloc 13658
fltk1.3 12796
uhd 1119
wcslib 577
ccfits 526
qevercloud 285
libstxxl 229
caffe 171
frobby 126
starpu 11
I will now file bugs with these 10 packages so that the maintainers are aware
of the issue.
The latest version of the package, ready for the upload to unstable, is here:
