I just copied it from alioth's cgit page of the package ...

Looks like a temporary problem of unstable. I just could build it
again. The corresponding lines are

Preconfiguring packages ...
Selecting previously unselected package liblocale-gettext-perl.
(Reading database ... 13462 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to unpack .../liblocale-gettext-perl_1.05-8+b1_amd64.deb ...
Unpacking liblocale-gettext-perl (1.05-8+b1) ...

Could you just try again?

No problem; however: I would prefer to use the BTS for the workflow, and
since there is already a procedure for sponsoring: why not just add a
tag "SoB" (or so) there instead of maintaining a separate list?

Best regards
