Dear maintainer(s),

I looked at the results of the autopkgtest of your package. I noticed that it regularly fails (in this case because it's blocking migration of src:autopkgtest), mostly on armhf and a bit on ppc64el and s390x.

Because the unstable-to-testing migration software now blocks on
regressions in testing, flaky tests, i.e. tests that flip between
passing and failing without changes to the list of installed packages,
are causing people unrelated to your package to spend time on these
tests.

Don't hesitate to reach out if you need help and some more information
from our infrastructure.

Paul
PS: why does it even use text from a different and very unrelated package? If there's not enough text in it's own source, couldn't it use something that's installed on all Debian systems, such that it doesn't need to be installed additionally and trigger migration runs?
