Bug#816997: gmsh: FTBFS in stretch, build dependencies not in stretch

Mon Mar 7 00:10:34 UTC 2016

Package: src:gmsh
Version: 2.11.0+dfsg1-2
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(i.e. only architecture-independent packages), and it failed.

But the failure is build-depends related, so it has nothing to do
with the fact that I was doing "dpkg-buildpackage -A", hence
the serious severity.
