Hello Santiago,
nlohmann-json3-dev has a well-known upstream bug that causes it to breaks the
ABI with each minor version, see for example:
xeus (3.1.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium
* d/control: build-depend on nlohmann-json3-dev 3.11.3
The API of this library exposes types from nlohmann::json, and this
resulted in an ABI change depending on whether libxeus and the kernel
are built against 3.11.2 or 3.11.3. This adds an explicit dependency
on nlohmann-json3-dev 3.11.3. This explicitly chooses the newer version
for libxeus and dependencies. (Closes: #1060164, #1061007)

Unfortunately Gianfranco uploaded a new minor version of nlohmann-json3-dev
during the
freeze, hence breaking unstable. I suppose the other xeus packages have the
same bug.
%rmadison nlohmann-json3-dev
nlohmann-json3-dev | 3.5.0-0.1 | oldoldstable | all
nlohmann-json3-dev | 3.7.0-2~bpo10+1 | buster-backports | all
nlohmann-json3-dev | 3.9.1-1 | oldstable | all
nlohmann-json3-dev | 3.11.2-2 | stable | all
nlohmann-json3-dev | 3.11.3-2.1 | testing | all
nlohmann-json3-dev | 3.12.0-1 | unstable | all
So I am unsure what to do. How are we supposed to deal with RC bug in unstable
that do not affect stable ?
Cheers,
