    It (build-)depends on packages with these RC bugs:
    1104789: libhtml-gumbo-perl: erratic behavior on the unsupported template HTML element - GUMBO_NODE_TEMPLATE node type
    https://bugs.debian.org/1104789

    Hi, I posted a tentative patch for libhtml-gumbo-perl, but I think it
    should really go away at some point. It's unmaintained upstream and
    hasn't adapted to newer development in the gumbo-parser library properly.

    The only reverse dependency is request-tracker5, so that would need to
    be handled first. Filing a bug about this for starters.

    (Not proposing this for trixie unless it's trivial to do and/or
    the libhtml-gumbo-perl situation gets worse somehow.)

    Greetings from the (somewhat rainy) Debian MountainCamp in Innsbruck!
