There are regressions reported in autopkgtests for amd64, arm64 and ppc64el:
Failures within each test:

I'm not sure if that's caused by the change. I'd appreciate an opinion from Eric or Heitor.

Thanks!

It's just a matter to retry them until they work. It's due to the autopkgtest env for 'exotic' arches.
