The 100 or so failures are now summarised in
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Y8dy5cyu8DrmTvT4CNSaVSP2ZZT79sYhT_rAQ19bFUQ/edit?usp=sharing,
please do check if any packages you care about are on the list and fix any
that you can see how to. Uploading fixes direct to the archive is
preferred, but if you lack the rights to do that, attaching a bug to a
debdiff and subscribe me (mwhudson on lp) and I'll sponsor it v. quickly!
