> this failure is most likely because your build environment is buggy

It's always a fresh, clean container image that I recreate entirely (not 
dist-upgrade) at 07:00 UTC on my laptop from the latest sid. I run build-dep 
and then build with debuild; nothing special. 

Other systems -- including the reproducible builds servers -- can reproduce the 
FTBFS, so I am not convinced at this point that my environment is buggy.

I don't block internet access. I really should though!

Ah, smells like the bug is there - d-shlibs does not depend on apt-file and, 
clearly, I should not have to manage that dependency manually or have it 
installed in my minimal chroots. :)
