Hi, I tried to upgrade the Jessie backport of python-pyvcf from 0.6.7-1~bpo8+1 to 0.6.8-1. Unfortunately when trying to build this minor update the build runs into lots of errors like:

Does anybody have an idea what might went wrong here under Jessie which builds nicely under Stretch or should I post a full build log? Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
