For completeness, you could also run the test in an autopkgtest.

Control: severity -1 serious Hi,starting with forky /var/lib/dpkg/available will no longer be available on the buildd chroots, so making this RC. The easiest fix would be to disable the affected test. Please reach out if you need help with that.Cheers Jochen * Jochen Sprickerhof <[email protected]> [2025-06-14 08:16]:Source: dh-make-perl Version: 0.128 Severity: normal Tags: ftbfs Hi, dh-make-perl currently fails to reproduce on reproduce.d.n: https://reproduce.debian.net/all/#dh-make-perl This is due to two things: 1. The package assumes that a /var/lib/dpkg/available file exists. This is not guaranteed. For example mmdebstrap does not create it. You can test that by using sbuild from trixie or bookworm-backports with: sbuild --chroot-mode=unshare --dist=unstable --no-run-lintian dh-make-perl 2. The package uses /usr/lib/apt/apt-helper from the apt package in lib/Debian/AptContents.pm. Note that apt is not essential so the package has a missing build dependency on apt (and probably also a missing dependency).
