The autopkgtests for r-cran-tmb [1] and r-cran-glmmtmb [2] have
completed on all architectures except for s390x, which are still
queued. So no definitive answer for #980809 yet. The latest results
no longer have the "Package version inconsistency detected" warning.

This is not true, I was confused by a similar error I had seen in
another package (where the warning does come from r-base):
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘DropletUtils’ in
loadNamespace(j <- imp[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck =
vI[[j]]):
namespace ‘Matrix’ 1.2-18 is already loaded, but >= 1.3.2 is required
The warning in r-cran-tmb comes from r-cran-tmb itself [3]. I had a
look on codesearch.debian.net and found the only other occurrences of
packageVersion("Matrix") were in r-cran-rcpparmadillo and
r-cran-igraph, and that code seems to be catering for different
versions of Matrix, not warning against them. In my opinion, there's
nothing to be done in rmatrix, and I will reassign this bug to
r-cran-tmb, affecting r-cran-glmmtmb. I think the solution there is
to simply upgrade the warning to an error and then it should be caught
by autopkgtest whenever it wants rebuilding.
