Yowza! something definetly went wrong there, thanks for pointing this out.

I'm about to remove this binpkg again anyhow, it was intended to be used to
run the testsuite in the autopkgtests of yosys' most flaky/critical
dependency (berkeley-abc) but I didn't realise rdepends with broken
autopkgtests will block migration anyhow. So this shouldn't actually be
necessary.

As long as nobody installs this package at least it won't waste space in
the archive as the deb is compressed anyway. Post mortem wise, I'm not sure
what's going on here. When I unpack the tarball the directory only ends up
being around 50M (as it should be).

I'll have a closer look tomorrow.

Thanks,
