I briefly looked at #1023909 (python-pgmagick FTBFS with Python 3.11 as supported version) and found the same error. I spent some time trying to step through loading the extension with gdb and found that the failure is somewhere in amongst some boost macros associated with initialising the extension. I didn't actually manage to isolate the issue, however.
Is there a wider problem with boost python that needs addressing perhaps? regards Stuart -- Stuart Prescott http://www.nanonanonano.net/ stu...@nanonanonano.net Debian Developer http://www.debian.org/ stu...@debian.org GPG fingerprint 90E2 D2C1 AD14 6A1B 7EBB 891D BBC1 7EBB 1396 F2F7
