It would be easier if you hadn't pushed a new upstream version to git
before checking whether it had any new dependencies that aren't
satisfied yet in Debian (it needs python3-openmm >= 8.2).  Things are
always easier when the default branch remains buildable.

What other RC bug are you referring to?  I guess maybe
https://bugs.debian.org/1061826?  But I think that's actually been fixed
in openmm already - I don't see any distutils imports in its code any
more.

I think all that's needed is to branch from 1.9-4 (BTW, you forgot to
push the debian/1.9-4 tag), add the missing Depends:
python3-pkg-resources, and upload that as 1.9-5.  Does that sound right
to you?

Maybe also file a wishlist bug on openmm to upgrade to the new upstream
version.
