Hi,

Following up with that now that Trixie is out:

Building current coot with gemmi 0.7 works.

Importing the new upstream release and updating a few details results in 
a package that works and passes its testsuite. 
https://salsa.debian.org/lolando/finalcif has the code, seemingly ready 
to upload.

As you mentioned, there hasn't been an upstream release recently. 
However the code still evolves a bit (the last commit happened last 
month); taking a snapshot from the master branch didn't immediately 
result in a working package, even after two patches to rename structure 
fields following Gemmi's renaming.

Still the case.

Still works.

So in summary: coot, finalcif, molmodel and dials work with gemmi 0.7.0 
(or can be made to work); freesasa and macromoleculebuilder don't appear to.

Do you think this warrants uploading gemmi 0.7.0 to unstable, and maybe 
get in touch with freesasa and macromoleculebuilder upstreams?
