I think this is a glitch in the migration software. It'sn not a 
dependency (that wouldn't be allowed), but a build dependency. The 
migration software tries to prevent migration without build 
dependencies, but it's doesn't enforce that (yet).

Bug#1051285: scap-security-guide: build dependency missing in testing

2023-09-05 Thread Paul Gevers

Source: scap-security-guide
Version: 0.1.65-1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid trixie
User: debian...@lists.debian.org

Dear maintainer(s),

Dose [1] is reporting issues with your packages. Normally your build 
dependencies shouldn't be removed from testing without removal all 
reverse build dependencies too, nor should a package be allowed to 
migrate unless all build dependencies are candidate for migration too. 
However, somehow we ended up in the current state and your source 
package is missing some Build-Depends for some while now. Not being able 
to build from source in a suite is an RC bug in that suite.


Can you please solve the situation by either helping the maintainer of 
your Build-Depends to enable migration to testing, or by working around 
the lack of this build dependency?
