as you can see in previous uploads Anton Gladky has worked on fixing  
most of the Horde issues for php8.1 with recent upload. That was done  
as paid work.

The goal of the funded uploads is to keep Horde in bookworm.

So ideally, and if possible, you file RC bug reports for the new  
autopkgtest failures/regressions introduced by the php8.2 transition /  
upload.

Thanks for your work!
Mike
