The reason is https://bugs.debian.org/1095351
The package started to fail its build (test failures) in Februar 
2025; this bug was not fixed, so it was removed from testing and 
didn't become part of the trixie release.

The same test failure still happens in today's unstable, 
unfortunately …


Cheers,
