Package: libeckit0d
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Version: 1.29.1-1
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 8.1
Control: affects -1 odc magics++ python-xarray
Control: block 1100293 by -1
While investigating a build failure in magics++ [1] i noticed that
eckit upstream changed their exception constructors extensively in the 1.29
upstream release
https://github.com/ecmwf/eckit/commit/76990068c35a8cd3d9573585a762ae1a2d2454d5#diff-9b7bfdb8788cc84e5099d6294707382018383d212a4bb93d5b84994771cd71f7
This of course breaks abi (and API when not using default arguement values).
In the build of python-xarray this manifests in these errors:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libodccore.so.0d: undefined reference to
`eckit::UserError::UserError(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char,

Which actually show that libodccore.so.0d uses symbols no longer included
in libeckit0d thus failing the link of any library or application linking
to libodccore.so.0d.
As the soname is a debian downstream patch, this might be that upstream
doesn't consider the abi stable across releases. But in debian we need
some kind of fix.
As debian is long past transition freeze, bumping the soname might
no longer be an option.
I locally got the broken magics++ build to work by using locally
rebuild odc packages.
I might also be possible to restore the old exception constructors in a
local patch.
The build failure blocks builds migrating to testing which causes a
autorm cascade of 140 packages.
Due to the current freeze status, removal of these packages from trixie
will likely be permanent if it is going through.
According to the release team packages failing to migrate is itself a
RC bug.
I set severity to serious in part to avoid this break migrating to testing
while there is not yet a plan how to fix this.
