This isn't a normal review, this is a source split, and we really have to see 
what we gain/lose due to that:
- Version upgrade 5.0.5 -> 6.0 (better)
- Maintained and tracked individually (better)
- No tests (as before)

Since it is the same code as before not that much review is needed to be
repeated.

So while not perfect we are at no real loss and have some gains compared
to the situation before.

I really would like to see some tests added and have taken the
opportunity to bump the priority of that bug - because we want to see
this as a non-blocking chance to get it tested. Not as hiccup to be
ignored from now on.

MIR Team ack for:
- being code that already was in main
- making the situation slightly better overall
- no new dependencies/complexities added

No security review needed (again).

I was also checking if suitesparse is only in main for nostalgic reasons.
Back in 2008 this was promoted as build-depends which nowadays no more need to 
be in main (see bug 305790).
I found the mentione build-dependency (doesn't matter anymore) and a runtime 
dependency to src:suitesparse but not to src:suitesparse-graphblas
libreoffice-calc -> lp-solve -> libcolamd2 -> libsuitesparseconfig5 (of 
src:suitesparse, no deps from here)

If you look at germinate [1] it seems all of the rest only comes due to the 
auto-inclusion of libsuitesparse-dev and libsuitesparse-doc. You could consider 
trying to exclude their auto-promotion and to me it seems suitesparse-graphblas 
might then drop from component mismatches.
I might have missed a dependency, but wanted to ask if you had a reason to keep 
those bits of suitesparse*

TL;DR:
If you really do want it fine, but maybe it is not needed.
Setting to incomplete for Desktop to check motivations and details.
