Dear maintainer(s),

Your package has an autopkgtest, great. However, it fails. Can you
please investigate the situation and fix it? I copied some of the output
at the bottom of this report.

The release team has announced [1] that failing autopkgtest on amd64 and
arm64 are considered RC in testing.

More information about this bug and the reason for filing it can be
found on
https://wiki.debian.org/ContinuousIntegration/RegressionEmailInformation

With my Release Team member hat on I have tagged this as trixie-ignore
as it's so late in the freeze and it's not worth removing the package
from trixie because of this at this moment. Having said that, if a fix
is possible without fully removing the autopkgtest and without making
the test superficial, it's still welcome, but it would need to happen soon.

Paul
