This source package Build-Depends on gnome-common, a collection of
autoconf macros formerly used by GNOME, which was deprecated 10 years
ago.
It turns out the uses of these macros were replaced with
autoconf-archive in 2016 (see #830009), but the build-dependency is
still present. Please consider the attached patch, also available as
<https://salsa.debian.org/printing-team/cups-pk-helper/-/merge_requests/2>.
I have confirmed using diffoscope that rebuilds of the current
cups-pk-helper with and without this patch have identical results.
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] d/control: B-D on autoconf-archive instead of obsolete
gnome-common
This could have been switched after fixing #830009, but wasn't.
Closes: #1112406
