Close to doing an upload. So let's check:

So I tend to ignore this issue for now. But I'd still be interested in
what caused this.

Fix pending and verified.

It's at least in unstable since 12th of January. Hence also Salsa CI
autopkgtest failed — once only, then I fixed it. :-)

Fixed and with it hopefully and finally the whole #1025868. The issue
was actually a false positive on arm64 and a false negative on all
other architecture I tested (amd64, i386, armhf) as the test itself
was broken. I just remove that single test from the test suite. Other
tests for that tag still exist.

Done now, depending on what actually counts as "recently". ;-)

Done, too. Also brought up a few things despite I wasn't actually
searching for them. But running lintian from git HEAD when working on
other packages helped indeed.

Still the plan, despite even closer to the freeze. :-/
