Hi, I've not read carefully your conversation, but I recall seeing this
which might be the relevant Debian bug for what you are discussing:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1123750
It looks like the cause and fix has been identified, but being Debian 11
oldoldstable I'm unsure about expectations for a fixed package being
released.
