[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#982170: libassuan: autopkgtest regression: undefined reference to symbol 'gpg_strerror@@GPG_ERROR_1.0'

[Paul Gevers]

Source: libassuan
Version: 2.5.4-1
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Severity: serious
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: regression

Dear maintainer(s),

With a recent upload of libassuan the autopkgtest of libassuan fails in
testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of
libassuan from unstable. It passes when run with only packages from
testing. In tabular form:

                       pass            fail
libassuan              from testing    2.5.4-1
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration to testing [1]. Can
you please investigate the situation and fix it?
