I must have been missing something, now I'm back to square one:
ftbfs in autogenerated sip c++ code related to overrides:

	/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/build/source/PYTHON/EXTENSIONS/BALLCoremodule/sipBALLCorepart2.cpp: At global scope:

I pushed my changes leading to these errors, but getting the
other bugs affecting ball fixed before Christmas might involve
undoing the setting of SIP_LIBRARIES in d/rules.

Kind Regards,
