To be more specific, the problem is in trying to upgrade from usr-is-merged 37 to 38 in an sbuild based on unstable. It doesn’t affect an sbuild based on testing.
The following packages will be upgraded:
cpp-12 dpkg dpkg-dev g++-12 gcc-12 gcc-12-base libdpkg-perl libgcc-12-dev
libnsl-dev libnsl2 libseccomp2 libstdc++-12-dev usr-is-merged
