I have emailed the upstream developer. Unfortunately the package has
ceased to work with recent gcc versions and I have had no response from
the developer.
I agree that the package should be removed from unstable.
Best regards

Dear maintainer,
I suggest removing ggcov from Debian for the following reasons:
* It accumulated one RC-bug:
+ #1020263: ggcov FTBFS: 1/21 tests passed
Last modified: 1 year, 11 months
* It is not part of bookworm or trixie and is not a key package.
This bug serves as a pre-removal warning. After one month, the bug will be
reassigned to ftp.debian.org to actually request removal of the package.
In case the package should be kept in unstable, please evaluate each of the
RC-bugs listed above.
* If the bug is meant to permanently prevent the package from entering testing
or a stable release, but this package should stay part of unstable, please
add a usertag:
user helm...@debian.org
usertags NNN + sidremove-ignore
* If the bug no longer applies, please close it. If it is closed, check
whether the fixed version is correct and adjust if necessary.
* Is the bug really release-critical? If not, please downgrade.
* If the bug still applies, please send a status update at least once a year.
Once all of the mentioned RC bugs have been acted upon in one way or another,
please close this bug.
In case the package should be removed from unstable, you may reassign this
bug report:
Control: severity -1 normal
Control: retitle -1 RM: ggcov -- RoM; rc-buggy
Control: reassign -1 ftp.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:ggcov
Alternatively, you may wait a month and have it reassigned.
In case you disagree with the above, please add a wontfix tag to this bug.
Control: tags -1 + wontfix
Doing so will also prevent automatic reassignment.
Kind regards
