Mmm, but I have checked the binaries at the time of 2026-07-24 with your script; those which are bogus (that's almost 100 packages) have all been produced by hurd-dbdd-tls-1, and never by boralus; given the number, that can't be a coincidence. I don't have access to the host, so don't have all the qemu details immediately available, but x86info says as below. The software setup is the same as boralus.
It surely cannot be a coincidence. This is reassuring actually and supports the case that it is something about the (virtual) hardware that is relevant. I'll have a look through the hurd-dbdd-tls-1 vm configuration to see if there's anything that I could try myself. I had considered looking for some second hand hardware matching boralus and now glad that I didn't. Might it be possible to rent some server space for a virtual machine on a machine similar to the hurd-dbdd-tls-1 host? I'd pay for that myself if it wasn't too expensive or needed for a long time.
