The reasoning for not installing libgs10-common is so complex that we
had to actually try it and backtrack and lost information about it in
the process; but it should mean that libgs10-common is not installable
at the root, i.e. it's a broken package.

Unfortunately I'm unable to provide further information at this point.
If you can reproduce this locally you can see the reason by passing -o
Debug::APT::Solver=2 and reading paragraphs starting with "Branch
failed".

The plan here would be to record the reasoning trace for the failure
when backtracking rather than losing it, but we can't quite do that now
because I don't know how it aligns with the non-chronological
backtracking which we do need for more complex scenarios (not
encountered so far in the wild) to not hang.
