yes, I know, and I always forget about it, sorry! (I still think this is not a good thing to do by default, the BTS should notify the submitter automatically) >I tried building the package on machines with 1 CPU and 2 CPUs.

Thanks fro the offer, I was not saying "I don't want to fix this bug" :) I was just trying to check why I can't reproduce with pbuilder at all. I found why borgbackup2 doesn't have this issue... fakeroot! https://salsa.debian.org/debian/borgbackup2/-/commit/4887a213aa4d4c2a3dcc4583952258c944f3a080 So I'll backport that change, or ignore that test and push :) thanks a lot for the report/help!
