Bug#1053090: libxsimd-dev: arm64 error in xtensor: usage of batch type with unsupported type

[Drew Parsons]

Source: xtensor
Version: 0.24.7-4
Followup-For: Bug #1053090
Control: severity 1053090 important

xsimd support is optional for xtensor.

Use of batch<bool> is apparently not expected to be routinely used
anyway. See further discussion at
https://github.com/xtensor-stack/xsimd/issues/945

In summary, xtensor can be run on arm64 (and armel) without xsimd,
and batch<bool> support should not be considered release-critical.

For these reasons I'm downgrading this bug to Severity: important.
It wouldn't be constructive to remove xtensor from testing.
