spdlog is ftbfs because of symbols file, and is pending upload #977454
Rebuild with fixed spdlog and fmtlib, following packages ftbfs, but
not related to fmtlib/7.1.3
+ pytorch, impossible to build on a personal computer.. but only in sid..
+ sopt #975843, ftbfs without fmtlib/7.1.3
+ lizardfs ftbfs without fmtlib/7.1.3, only in sid
+ dpaste ftbfs without fmtlib/7.1.3, only in sid
Other packages are just fine to build.
