Hi Andreas,

Thanks for your work tracking broken/uninstallable packages.

In this case, I'm reluctant to do this. What is really needed here is an
upload of the newer version to unstable. If nobody is willing to work on that,
I don't know if we can keep php7.3 in bullseye.

If there is an indication that a new upload is coming (fairly soon), and that
this is a temporary workaround, that might be a different situation.

Thanks,

Ivo
