Hi,
I've found in the set of patches for segyio other cherry-picked patches
to adapt to certain Python3.x versions[1]. The patch kindly suggested
by s3v to fix this bug[2] would simply be another cherry-pick from upstream
who has meanwhile released a couple of new versions incorporating all
patches we seem to need for Python3.12 - thus by upgrading to latest
upstream the current bug would be fixed.
Usually I would do this in case of team maintained packages but I faced
some problems with latest upstream and thus I simply created a branch
version_1.9.12 with all proposed changes including current packaging
standards and fixing a further bug. Unfortunately the build system is
all but smooth compared to other packages and I finally stumbled upon
a C++ conversion issue[4] which is not solved by simply adding
#include <stdint.h>
and my further attempt leads to a test suite issue which seems to
indicate that my poor C++ understanding is wrong.
So I'm giving up here by leaving two questions:
1. Anybody up for fixing this package and bringing it to latest
upstream?
2. Alternatively do we want to drop this package from Debian?
Kind regards
Andreas.
