I have just noticed that 2025-08-09 was the date of the trixie
release. IIRC the whole legacy Debian Archive system was suspended
for several days for release admin. I think that would explain
everything.
I'll wait a day or two for Reinhard's reply but I think I'm fairly
confident that this explains everything.
It looks from timestamps in the repos/ directory on gideon like only
these two packages were affected.
AFAIAA this kind of breakage hasn't happened before, but we should
perhaqps consider a way to avoid it happening again. I'm not sure
what that would look like.
