Hello.

This package is still a headache for my autobuilder.

Do you mean you could always reproduce with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
and never with "dpkg-buildpackage"?

Later you said:

Are you sure that removing those settings is the real reason it stopped
failing for you? (Would you try a few more times?)

It still fails for me, randomly, and I'm not using EC2 but KVM on my
own server and KVM on a commercial provider, so my alternate theory is
that it was random before you dropped the settings, and it continues
to be random after dropping the settings.

This is my historic data:

Version 2.2.1-0.3 is the first one that does not *always* fail for me.
This is a great achievement indeed.

Now it builds sometimes, but 3/11 is not a very good ratio.

Is the Debian maintainer alive?
