[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1060987: q2cli: FTBFS: AttributeError: module 'bibtexparser' has no attribute 'bparser'

[Étienne Mollier]

Control: reassign -1 src:qiime/2022.11.1-2
Control: retitle -1 qiime: FTBFS: AttributeError: module 'bibtexparser' has no attribute 'bparser'
Control: affects -1 + q2cli

This looks to be the main issue:
> /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/qiime2/core/cite.py:26: in load
>     parser = bp.bparser.BibTexParser()
> E   AttributeError: module 'bibtexparser' has no attribute 'bparser'

Since update of bibtexparser to 2.0.0b, the bparser has been
either removed or not reimplemented yet.  The documentation
exposed in the bibtexparser source code gives little clue how to
migrate from that particular situation.  Quick lookup at
contemporary qiime source code[1] shows the invocation is still
around as of today, so an upstream version bump won't help yet.

Maybe an option could be to avoid attemting to apply the bibtex
parser customization when the bparser does not exist anymore?
I'm not entirely confident on the side effects downstream.  Only
other option I can think of would be to wait and see how the
bibtexparser v2.0.0 release will behave if there are planned
changes on the parser or unicode customizations front.

Have a nice day,  :)
