Hi, I hope this is the correct list to ask this questions - if not please redirect me (and also please CC me in your reply). [debian-mentors in CC as well - may be some other people have a similar problem.]
I know that qiime has a serious bug (#731190) where I was seeking for help six weeks ago with no real result. So I would have expected to become kicked from testing because of this bug which would be fine. However, it is kicked because of an "old libffi" dependency. I realised that it had in fact libffi6 (>= 3.0.4) in its dependencies which was included via ${shlibs:Depends} or ${misc:Depends} but I have no idea, how to prevent this. Would a rebuild be sufficient to get the "new libffi" dependency or do I need to do more? Kind regards Andreas.
