All good from here on the Debian side. Built (and uploaded) QuantLib
yesterday, followed up with QuantLib-SWIG (for just Python) now. I did once
again have to carry the 'make Python 3.10 the minimum' patch forward as I had
for the last two (?)  cycles.

I presume you keep it 3.8 for a reason?  If not a gentle nudge to adjust :)
The patch basically is still the same as

   https://sources.debian.org/src/quantlib-swig/1.41-1/debian/patches/upgrade-minimum-python-version-3.10.patch

but will get slightly changed line numbers when '1.41.99' (as we cannot
append '-rc' in our version sorting) pops up in due course.

Cheers,  Dirk
