[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#1122028: python-casacore: FTBFS with Python 3.14

[Ole Streicher]

Hi Stuart,

thank you very much for your investigation and patch!

I must however say that I do not fully understand the bug and also not 
your solution:

Your approach is (if I understand yoour execute_after_dh_auto_install 
correctly) not to rebuild the libcasa_python lib for each Python 
version, but to copy it and then patch the right soname into. This works 
only if the libs would be ABI compatible. However, if 
usr/lib/<arch>/libcasa_python3.so.9 is ABI compatible between Python 
versions, why can't we just keep using this name and a single library?

If there is an ABI incompatibility, we would in any case need to do 
something else (like limiting to only one Python version), right?

Best

Ole
