I think this is actually a policy violation by libsingular4m4n1, namely

 The run-time shared library must be placed in a package whose name
 changes whenever the SONAME of the shared library changes

It is weird that only that one library has the SONAME that changes
following the upstream version. Perhaps this is configurable?

Bug#1136624: polymake: See #1135403

[Joachim Zobel]

Package: polymake
Version: 4.15-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Your package causes an FTBFS for gap-hap and gap-hapcryst through a broken
dependeny on singular. See

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1135403

The important line is

polymake:  ERROR: "/usr/share/polymake/perllib/Polymake/Core/CPlusPlus.pm",
line 1785: Can't load shared module /usr/lib/polymake/lib/ideal.so:
libsingular-omalloc-4.4.1+0.9.6.so: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory

Sincerely,
Joachim
