[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#908065: r-cran-adegraphics: autopkgtest regression: dependency versions not properly specified

[Paul Gevers]

Source: r-cran-adegraphics
Version: 1.0-12-1
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: regression

Dear maintainers,

With the upload of 1.0-12-1 the autopkgtest of your package started to
fail when run in testing (it runs fine in unstable). I copied the output
below.

Currently this regression is contributing to the delay of the migration
to testing [1]. Could you please investigate the situation and fix it?
If needed, please change the bug's severity as appropriate.

Looking at the error, you seem to be missing a versioned (test)
dependency on r-cran-ade4. A similar issue can be seen when
r-cran-treescape [2] or r-cran-treespace [3] is tested in testing, with
r-cran-adegraphics from unstable. Seems like r-cran-adegraphics breaks
the versions of r-cran-treescape and r-cran-treespace in testing.

More information about this bug and the reason for filing it can be found on
