Unfortunately, that won't work :-( The only solution is to delete /usr/bin/glue entirely, as 1.17 no longer provides a gui front end. Instead, there are two new packages: glue-qt and glue-jupyter that provide front ends; see https://pypi.org/project/glue-core/ So one or both of these will need to be packaged. (And my guess is that glue-qt will be *much* easier to package than glue-jupyter.) As a result of this internal change to glue_core, the glueviz binary package needs to be replaced by (presumably) the glue-qt package. Something like: source: glueviz (= glue-core PyPI package) -> binary: python3-glue source: glue-qt -> binary: glueviz I don't have the capacity to do this work, I'm afraid. Best wishes, Julian
