Package: gap-guava-bin
Version: 3.17+ds-2
Severity: normal

Dear Debian Science Maintainers,

gap-guava-bin includes the directory
/usr/lib/gap/pkg/guava/bin/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-default64-kv7
but does not depend on gap-kernel-7.

1) As far as I can see, the guava binaries are not linked against the gap-kernel
so are independent of it, so the binaries should just go to
/usr/lib/gap/pkg/guava/bin/

2) the new gap kernel 4.12 is gap-kernel-8 and will not find binaries in
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-default64-kv7

3) if for some reason, you really need x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-default64-kvN, you
need to depend on gap-kernel-N.

Cheers,
