For future reference, if your usual sponsor doesn't have time, you can
file a request for sponsoring, details are available here:

When you do that, it is generally a good idea to notify the bug that
the fixed version is available and just waiting a sponsor. For low
severity bugs run tagpending from devscripts but for severity important
or higher bugs mailing the bug with details & tag pending is needed.

   https://manpages.debian.org/tagpending
   https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting#control
   https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control#tag
   https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#tags

These changes you have made need fixes:

 * the second test in debian/tests/control needs to be marked as a
   superficial test too according to #974458
 * debian/changelog for superficial issue should (Closes: #974458)
 * debian/changelog for rsvg issue should (Closes: #964511)
 * the reason for the addition of python3-docutils to the build deps
   should be documented in debian/changelog
 * the reason for the update of the X-Python3-Version field should be
   documented in debian/changelog
 * there is a debian/changelog entry about upstream metadata but those
   changes don't seem to be in the package

These changes made in 1.3.0-2 are not suitable under the freeze policy:

   https://release.debian.org/bullseye/freeze_policy.html
   
 * the release team usually reject debhelper compat bumps, unless you
   can prove that the change does not change the binary packages in a
   meaningful way. You can do that by building once with debhelper
   debian/compat 11 and once with debhelper-compat 12 and attach
   diffoscope output for the .changes files between the two builds.

Please make the changes I have listed above, file an unblock request
(reportbug release.debian.org, select unblock), upload a source package
to mentors and file an RFS, then I will upload the package to Debian,
once the release team approve the changes.
