You can consider to check britney pseudo excuses for your package:
https://release.debian.org/britney/pseudo-excuses-experimental.html

It will give you some fair idea of what reverse-depends need fixing.
This will however give the full picture about reverse-build-depends, i.e.
if something FTBFS because of this package and is not relying on it
during autopkgtests.

This is super cool, but IIRC salsa admins are not very happy with running jobs like these
which will re-build a lot of packages, as it can overwhelm the runners. I'd ask them once before
I do this :)
