Please unblock package utf8proc (explain the reason for the unblock here) I'm astonished that the unicode (11.* -> 12.*) transition happend at such a deep freeze stage. utf8proc is tightly coupled with the unicode-data version, and the new unicode-data version incured FTBFS: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=927941 The simplest way to fix this bug is to bump utf8proc to 2.3.0 (include/attach the debdiff against the package in testing) According to upstream NEWs/changelog https://github.com/JuliaStrings/utf8proc/commit/eb39b060e7e518941a912e1f51bae1cc6316f547 And the commit history (97ef668 -> 454f601) https://github.com/JuliaStrings/utf8proc/commits/master The major change from 2.2.0 (testing) to 2.3.0 (not yet packaged) is the support for unicode-data (= 12). There is no breaking change. So I request an unblock for 2.3.0-1 unblock utf8proc/2.3.0-1 -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled
