[Debian-pan-maintainers] Bug#1008119: Bug#1008119: src:pyfai: fails to migrate to testing for too long: autopkgtest regression

[Jerome Kieffer]

Dear Paul,

I am the upstream author of pyFAI and the release 0.21.1 is a bugfix
for the regressions spotted by the debian CI on a couple of 32-bit
computer architectures (thanks to debian for that). 

Thus I don't understand why the migration from unstable to testing is
blocked, especially that the tests passes on all architectures now.



Best regards,

Jerome
Nota, a version 0.21.2 was released with some documentation improvements.
