[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1034349: bedtools: autopkgtest fails on bookworm kernel: ulimit: error setting limit (Operation not permitted)

Dear maintainer(s),

Your package has an autopkgtest, great. However, it fails when the host 
is running a bookworm kernel. I have upgrade several of the 
ci.debian.net hosts (arm64, i386, ppc64el and s390x) to bookworm and 
that's where the failure happens. I confirm that running the test on 
amd64 with a bookworm kernel fails in the same way. Can you please 
investigate the situation and fix it? I copied some of the output at the 
bottom of this report.

The release team has announced [1] that failing autopkgtest on amd64 and 
arm64 are considered RC in testing. [Release Team member hat on] Because 
we're currently in the hard freeze for bookworm, I have marked this bug 
as bookworm-ignore. Targeted fixes are still welcome.
