This is bug 1064762 that has now probably been added to bookworm by a 
patch to vtk9.

I can work around this here by simply deactivating test, but this kind 
of reading of the vtk files I cannot fix here. dune-grid just writes 
those files.

The underlying problem can only be fixed in VTK. though. It might affect 
other packes.

How should we proceed?

Best,

Markus

I'll start with that then.

This will leave the main problem, though:

Due to the security fix in expat [1], you will not be able to process 
any binary vtk files in bookworm
(e.g. visualize them in paraview) anymore.

To fix that we would need to backport [2] to vtk9

In addition I have also provided a workaround in dune-grid on salsa in branch bookworm [3],
in case that is more convenient. I still think that fixing vtk9 is the better option, as it prevents
more problems.

Again I am only a maintainer of dune-grid and probably cannnot upload to bookworm (or at least
I do not know how). Would be cool if somebody would upload either of the approaches.

Best,

Markus

Thanks a lot!

Since you already did the required work, fixing vtk9 properly looks
indeed the better option now.

I've converted your bookworm branch into a proper team upload (see the
most recent commit), which I plan to upload soon (with proper credit
of course).

Will probably ask you for help regarding the bug to release.debian.org
that we will have to send.

Cc: Anton Gladky, the usual maintainer, so that he is aware, and also
in case he has something to say about this.

Thanks.

Cool. Looks good to me.

Sure. I'll be glad to help if I can.
