Version: 3.13.1-1
Severity: serious
Tags: ftbfs
Justification: fails to build from source
Using FTBFS as it's the closest thing we have to an autopkgtest
regression severity. xml2rfc autopkgtest fails in Unstable with
Weasyprint 57.0:

Upstream is apparently aware since (I discovered after uploading
Weasyprint) they have recently pinned the Weasyprint dependency to
<57.0.
I did file an issue upstream:
