Dear maintainer(s),

The Release Team considers packages that are out-of-sync between testing
and unstable for more than 30 days as having a Release Critical bug in
testing [1]. Your package src:bpftrace has been trying to migrate for 33
days [2], hence this bug report. The package failed to build on armhf so
far. The current output of the migration software for this package is
copied to the bottom of this report.

If a package is out of sync between unstable and testing for a longer
period, this usually means that bugs in the package in testing cannot be
fixed via unstable. Blocked packages can have impact on other packages,
which makes preparing for the release more difficult. The situation that
caused this bug report might even be the result of such an issue. We
expect maintainers to fix issues that hamper the migration of their
package in a timely manner. If your package in this situation due to
another package, consider helping out.

This bug will trigger auto-removal when appropriate. As with all new
bugs, there will be at least 30 days before the package is auto-removed.

This bug submission immediately closes the bug with the version in
unstable, so if that version or a later version migrates, this bug will
no longer affect testing. This bug is also tagged to only affect sid and
forky, so it doesn't affect (old-)stable.

If you believe your package is unable to migrate to testing due to
issues beyond your control, don't hesitate to contact the Release Team.

This bug report has been automatically generated. If you have any
comments with regards to the content or the process, please reach out to me.
