I hope I was following developers reference about t-p-u[6] correctly
and pushed

$ git diff HEAD^

   * Fix link for normalize.css


to git.  I've choosen the version 1.7.4+dfsg-3~deb12u1 to match
the requirement that the version is lower than in unstable

$ if dpkg --compare-versions 1.7.4+dfsg-3 gt 1.7.4+dfsg-3~deb12u1 ; then echo "OK" ; else echo "hmmm" ; fi
OK

I wonder whether dput is working with target distribution bookworm since
lintian  throws an error.  Release team is in CC - do you think I should
file a bug right now or just after an upload?

Kind regards
    Andreas.
