So we can maybe keep the upstream's generated code and not generate it on our own - this however does not seem DFSG compliant.

The file in the archive(on doing $apt source python3-sbml5) is generated with swig-4 already, while it's generated with swig-3 upstream.

Ahhh, so it is regenerated in the Debian package build process but it conflicts with other parts of the upstream code? Did I now understood correctly? I wonder if we should exclude this kind of autogenerated code inside the source tarball since we are repackaging the source anyway to exclude some files for policy reasons. I'm doing so in other source tarballs for instance with cython files to be absolutely sure that this code is regenerated. This would probably not solve the build issue but might be a good idea in general. What do you think?

Sorry, I couldn't understand which two files are you comparing. One is from the python3-sbml5 binary package and is generated with swig 4, where is the second one, generated by swig 3? -- WBR, wRAR signature.asc Description: PGP signature
[RFC] python-cobra, python3-sbml5
Hi, Currently python-cobra FTBFS reported here [1]. >From the logs, in the last message[2] it looks like an import-error for '_libsbml' file which corresponds to libsbml (with python3-sbml5 as a provide) package. When I dug into looking at libsbml, I noticed that the relevant file (libsbml.py) which throws error is generated with swig-3.0 by the upstream [3] While the same file in the apt archive (observed after $apt source python3-sbml5) seems to be generated with swig-4.0, and that's the current swig version in Debian now. When I compared, the one generated with swig 4.0 looks pretty different from the one generated by swig 3.0. I "suspect" that the error is due to the swig version change to 4.0, and corresponding API changes. I would really appreciate if I could have more folks "confirm" that this is the case, and I'm not missing out on anything else. I'll then file a report upstream then, asking for corresponding code changes needed for swig 4.0.
