Yeah, gobject-introspection was actually what I meant when I wrote
"fontforge". My bad, bad memory....

in a sid chroot with python 3.8 as default:

root@frodo:/# python3 --version
Python 3.8.1
root@frodo:/# g-ir-scanner 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/g-ir-scanner", line 99, in <module>
    from giscanner.scannermain import scanner_main
  File "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gobject-introspection/giscanner/scannermain.py", line 35, in <module>
    from giscanner.ast import Include, Namespace
  File "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gobject-introspection/giscanner/ast.py", line 29, in <module>
    from .sourcescanner import CTYPE_TYPEDEF, CSYMBOL_TYPE_TYPEDEF
  File "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gobject-introspection/giscanner/sourcescanner.py", line 33, in <module>
    from giscanner._giscanner import SourceScanner as CSourceScanner
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'giscanner._giscanner'

and thus stuff building introspection will FTBFS (right now)

(Thus I needed to disable it in my testbuild and thus 

libreoffice (1:6.4.0~beta1-4) experimental; urgency=medium

  * re-enable introspection which was accidentially kept disabled after a
    python3.8 test rebuild...
  * re-enable building of the "test packages"
    (-smoketest-data, -subsequentcheckbase)
