Yes, their patch is fine. I slightly preferred my version,
but not enough for it to be worth taking upstream. I've opened
https://salsa.debian.org/efi-team/libjcat/-/merge_requests/3 which
applies their patch instead of the one attached to this bug, and adds
the same autopkgtests I used before (they still pass).

Yes to a point, but since 0.1.0 didn't compile on the buildds *at all*, I
wanted to get through at least #955234 with downstream patches first, on
the basis that a package is better than no package.
I've simplified the patch that was part of the solution to #955234 further,
and sent it to <https://github.com/hughsie/libjcat/pull/23>.
