Package: shiboken2 Version: 5.15.0-5+b1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
FreeCAD (v18.4 - the default) failed to build (despite all build-dep being installed) complaining, that shiboken2 was build with python3.9, while found python has version 3.8. I've tried to build shiboken2 on the very same system, and shiboken2 have chosen to be build with python3.9 despite the fact, that python3 was linked to python3.8. This prevents FreeCAD-18.4 from being build. Both python3.8 and python3.9 are currently installes on the system. I tried to remove python3.8, so that FreeCAD-18.4 could pick version 3.9 for the build ... but numerous other packages depend on python3.8 So I've manually changed the link python3 from python3.8 to python3.9. This made FreeCAD-18.4 build correctly. But no manual intervention should be required for debian-source to get build correctly. I'm not a python programmer, and I don't know if shiboken2 could be compiled with python3.8; but if it can, this should be fixed by changeing the way shiboken2 build picks its python version. It should select the one, that is current system default. Still, since both python3.8 and python3.9 can be installed on a system at the same time, one may expect, that there are two versions of shiboken2 available: each one build with each of the python version. BTW: I'm assuming, FreeCAD-18.4 mainteiners did made veryfication of python minor version purposely - apparently it does matter there. -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.9.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_WARN, TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages shiboken2 depends on: ii libc6 2.31-4 ii libclang1-9 1:9.0.1-15+b1 ii libgcc-s1 10.2.0-16 ii libqt5core5a 5.15.1+dfsg-2 ii libstdc++6 10.2.0-16 ii libxml2 2.9.10+dfsg-6.2 ii libxslt1.1 1.1.34-4 shiboken2 recommends no packages. shiboken2 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
