lasagne and keras
Hello Debian Science members,
These two packages are having trouble, lasagne more than keras.
lasagne has an autopkgtest bug that I have been so far unable to fix:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=962938
As a result the package has been marked for autoremoval from testing.
I have submitted an issue upstream but there has been no response, and
the last real non-trivial commit was in 2018. I believe this is
because it depends on Theano, which we know well is already
end-of-life, so it's possible the authors have lost interest.
So, although I'd like to fix the strange bug with python mock, I feel
this may not be worth worrying about if there is no cooperation from
upstream. If so, this would be the first package I abandon, what is
the correct procedure? Do I just file as orphaned?
As for keras, I am happy to keep it going as long as it is possible.
In my view it would be worth keeping at least until Tensorflow is
available. I have currently filed an RFS for recent breakage if
anyone is interested to sponsor:

kind regards,
Steve
