The above is just how the build ends and not necessarily the most relevant part.
If required, the full build log is available here:

About the archive rebuild: This is an effort to keep trixie free from FTBFS bugs
during its lifetime as a supported distribution, as explained here:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2024/05/msg00414.html

(While they are not yet, please note that the bugs will be RC for trixie)

The build was made using sbuild and a reduced chroot with only
build-essential packages.

If you could not reproduce the bug please contact me privately, as I
am willing to provide ssh access to a virtual machine where the bug is
fully reproducible.

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.
