Right. Well, I applied it in unstable. Maybe you can see if the 
combination of new versions work on the loong64 buildds.

I understand Jochen wants to put a newer sbuild into 
stable-backports, at which point I expect the remaining buildds to 
also be affected. For this we would need a fix in a stable update of 
src:shadow. - Which I'm okay to prepare, but not within the next few 
days, and obviously the usual process applies.

Best,
Chris
