[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#956578: libcasa-python3-4: package became uninstallable with update of libboost-python1.67.0

[Giacomo Mulas]

Package: libcasa-python3-4
Version: 3.2.1-4+b2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

The update of libboost-python1.67.0 to 1.67.0-17+b1 on sid apparently broke
the dependencies of libcasa-python3-4, thus making it uninstallable.  I am
almost sure this is a mere packaging problem, but I am not sure whether it
should be fixed in casa or in boost packages.  At the moment I cannot check
in detail, since I pinned the version of boost on my laptop to avoid the
removal of libcasa-python3-4 and all packages that depend on it.  
If suitable, please feel free to relay this report to the maintainer of the
boost packages.

Thanks in advance, best regards
Giacomo Mulas
