The test rebuild was not made in lavels, so a bunch of packages fail to
build because they are missing ruby2.5 support in a dependency
(ruby-nokogiri being the most common case), so those didn't get a bug
report.

I checked a sample of the packages listed in the transition page, and
those that failed did it either for unrelated reasons, or due to missing
ruby2.5 support in dependencies.

Anyway, before I enable ruby2.5 in sid I will do a new rebuild with the
dependency level n available for level n+1, to make sure.
