Good day,

I had a look at the autopkgtest failure affecting biobambam2,
and since these segmentation faults were showing up only in my
autopkgtest environment, and not when using the package directly
on my system, it felt like a missing dependency.  So I trapped
system calls issued by the `bamsormadup` command using `strace`
within the run-unit-test script, and it turned out the program
was searching for a libz.so library.

After appending the zlib1g-dev package to dependencies of the
biobambam2 package, the autopkgtest suite fully executes without
errors.  Changes are pushed on Salsa, available for review:

As a side note I also updated the package to version 2.0.173, as
it has been released lately, and cleaned an informational entry
that was showing up in lintian.  This should also unblock and
resolve #966472; should it be mentioned through a "Closes"
statement in the changelog ?

Kind Regards,
