Hello. Actually, this is a bug that Lucas fixed in the collab-qa-tools repository here:

https://salsa.debian.org/lucas/collab-qa-tools/-/commit/6d75fa24ecf5f2c9e1378e9d0804190ca56fec82

and was refined a little bit here:

https://salsa.debian.org/lucas/collab-qa-tools/-/commit/182d02914edc58fd14293ae9bedb022d2e8e54cb

Those fixes are from late 2023-10 and this bug report was filed in late 2023-09,
so I'm almost sure that using the current framework, this bug would not have
been reported at all.

So, I'm dropping the ftbfs tag because IMO this is not a "proper" FTBFS bug.
Sorry that this package was undeservedly removed from testing because of this bug.
Should not really have happened.

[ I'm keeping the bug open because you said it happens in Salsa, but maybe
it could be reassigned to some salsa pseudopackage, if any. The problem in
AWS was in the images (or their default behavior), and the collab-qa-tools
fix was just a workaround. Maybe the nature of the problem in Salsa is similar ].

Thanks.
