Package: automake-1.16 Followup-For: Bug #1061785 User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu noble ubuntu-patch Control: tags -1 patch
Dear Maintainer, The reason for the autopkgtest failure is that the imp module was removed from python 3.12. The t/ax/am-test-lib.sh script currently calls imp.get_tag(), and the recommended[1] way to replace this functionality is to use sys.implementation.cache_tag. Thanks for considering the patch.
