I guess scm is the culprit. I've spent some time on it. The ncurses
thing was fixed, but now scm is not in testing because it doesn't
build on i386 and because of #1081101.
I've updated scm to 5f4 in the hope it would fix i386 and have fixed
#1081101: <https://salsa.debian.org/scheme-team/scm>. I'm not sure
if it builds on i386 buildds, I was never able to reproduce the i386
build failure. Now with the recent changes it doesn't build on i386 on
Salsa either but for some other reason that is not obvious from the
logs.
I don't have a lot of time to spend on Debian these days, so I would
appreciate it if someone would take over from here.
