This is because the storj.io/uplink dependency is not available in Debian, as 
well as its
dependencies:
- github.com/jtolio/eventkit
- storj.io/eventkit
- github.com/elek/bubbles
- github.com/spacemonkeygo/monkit
- storj.io/picobuf
- storj.io/common
- storj.io/drpc
- github.com/twitchtv/twirp
- storj.io/infectious

Usually the patch should be enough. (IMO this should warrant a NEWS entry.)

Several backends have been disabled in rclone due to their dependencies not 
being available in
Debian.

FYI, unless someone backports rclone (or somehow gets it into a Bookworm point 
release), then you'll
have to wait until the next release of Debian for any backends to be reenabled.

Kind regards,
Maytham
