caribou is no longer maintained:

It also depends on the unmaintained clutter-1.0 framework (#1041623).
It is not clear to me whether it ever reached a fully-usable status:

The only package in Debian that depends on it is cinnamon.

If cinnamon needs this package for its onscreen keyboard, then someone
from the cinnamon community will need to take responsibility for its
upstream maintenance.

Alternatively, if cinnamon doesn't need this feature or can use some
replacement, then caribou should be removed during the Debian 13 cycle.

Replied only for some days of delay of AUTORM and have a little more
time to carefully evaluate what is best to do in cinnamon when
eliminating caribou
