And here lintian does not fail, it just gets stuck.
This problem can be reproduced with 2.5.123 and 2.5.124 but not with 2.5.122.
I expect this problem has been introduced with the merge of Niels' work
on switching Lintian::Unpacker to IO::Async:
https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/commit/7cbc5efd619bb6d5c9bc45504e3ce9893b98f13c
Since lintian is run automatically after sbuild, this is very annoying
as it means builds get stuck on Kali's build daemons.
Cheers,
