FTBFS: circular dependency golang-github-viant-{assertly,toolbox}

[Hans Joachim Desserud]

golang-github-viant-assertly [1] currently fails to build because golang-github-viant-toolbox-dev is missing [2].

This package is built by golang-github-viant-toolbox [3]. However, it fails to build because golang-github-viant-assertly-dev - from the first package - is missing [4].

Bonus round: further up the chain, a third package [5] is waiting for toolbox-dev, while itself being the dependency of a fourth [5]. These two will likely automatically build once the circular dependency is resolved, but I've included them for completeness.

Hello back.

The fix has been reviewed and uploaded to unstable.
This should be fixed soon.

Cheers!

Great!

I pondered forwarding the report to Debian, but it seemed like all the packages built fine there, so I assumed it had already been bootstrapped.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/golang-github-viant-toolbox/0.33.0-10 was synced to groovy-proposed which built successfully. Since it is a new package I suppose someone needs to approve it, but once that is in I reckon the rest of the packages will build in short time.

[Hans Joachim Desserud (hjd)]

And indeed, all packages are now built and available in Groovy.
