FYI, upstream is very hostile towards having their software in Debian
so I suggest you cease packaging this and anything that depends on it:

https://github.com/explosion/cython-blis/issues/32

The developers reference mentions that packaging software with hostile
upstream developers is often not a good idea.

https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/developer-duties.en.html#coordination-with-upstream-developers

"If you find that the upstream developers are or become hostile
towards Debian or the free software community, you may want to
re-consider the need to include the software in Debian. Sometimes the
social cost to the Debian community is not worth the benefits the
software may bring."
