Bug#993349: r-cran-bh is at version 1.74.0-1 but DESCRIPTION remains at 1.66.0
Package: r-cran-bh
Version: 1.74.0-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-r@lists.debian.org
Hi,
I intend to upgrade r-cran-openmx and when trying to build I get:
Error: package 'BH' 1.66.0-1 was found, but >= 1.69.0.1 is required by '.'
I guess this is since the DESCRIPTION file does not properly declares
the version number.
I attached a patch which also includes a versioned Depends on libboost-dev.
Kind regards
Andreas.
