Hello. I can build this package just fine using sbuild, so I agree this is not RC.

But the builds which fails in Salsa CI are the normal builds (amd64 and i386),
not the one by reprotest. Salsa CI is supposed to be as similar as possible to
a "normal" build (made by sbuild), so I believe there is something
subtle going on here (which I would like to know if somebody figures out).

Thanks.
