Hello Maintainer,
Python 3.9 deprecated fractions.gcd in favor of math.gcd, this causes a
FTBFS in polybar #975795[0]. I believe this issue can cause FTBFS in
other packages and thus I picked the serious severity (same one applied
to the polybar bug report caused by this).
I have tried to find the correct place to send patches upstream and gave
up along the way when I couldn't find the project on freedesktop's
gitlab instance[1] and the homepage pointed to an empty bugzilla (which
I assume is not used anymore).
I proposed a solution on salsa[2], which I'm also attaching to this email.
I'm also willing to NMU the fix in case the maintainers don't have
available time.
Thanks,

Hi, upstream is at https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/xcbproto
and this issue is fixed in the latest release, so I'll just release that.
