[DRE-maint] Bug#1019731: gitlab: failed to fetch comments in merge requests (500 Internal Server Error)

Hi there,

As discussed in the upstream Gitlab bug report [1], apparently the 
package `ruby-activerecord` in version 6.1.6.1 
(2:6.1.6.1+dfsg-3~fto11+1) is broken as it appears to contain file from 
version 6.1.6 (specifically 
/usr/share/rubygems-integration/all/gems/activerecord-6.1.6.1/lib/active_record/railtie.rb). 
So, probably, that package needs to be fixed to get merge request 
comments working again.

In the meantime, there is a workaround available for Gitlab [2].

Best,
Max
