Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in buster but it failed:

(The above is just how the build ends and not necessarily the most relevant part)

The build was made in my autobuilder with "dpkg-buildpackage -B". I would like        
to add a reference to reproducible-builds, but it's currently down.

If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use reassign and affects,
so that this is still visible in the BTS web page for this package.

Thanks.
