Dear Maintainer,

your package depends on libeigen3-dev. The upstream released a
new major version of this mathematical library, 5.0.0. Some
basic information about new features and changes in this version
can be found here:

  https://libeigen.gitlab.io/releases/5.0/

This is a major version change and may require code changes in packages
depending on eigen3. The key breaking changes include:

  - Minimum required C++ standard is now C++14
  - Changes in the build system integration
  - Some API name changes

iqtree3 FTBFS with libeigen3-dev 5.0.1. The full build log is available at:

  https://debusine.debian.net/debian/developers-gladk-eigen3/artifact/3756398/

Here is the most probably relevant part of the failing build log:
    ===========================================
- -- Detecting CXX compile features - done
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:93 (message):
  Eigen3 library not found.  Either install it or rerun cmake with
  -DEIGEN3_INCLUDE_DIR=<installed_eigen3_dir>


- -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
	cd build.omp && tail -v -n \+0 CMakeCache.txt
==> CMakeCache.txt <==
# This is the CMakeCache file.

    ===========================================
libeigen3-dev_5.0.1-1 is available in experimental.

When this package version lands into unstable (probably at the beginning
of June 2026), this bug will be increased in severity to serious.

Thanks,

Anton
