I have successfully rebuilt the package locally with a patch for not
quite new enough Qt, added licence, b-r packages, and installed docs,
and cmake scripts and pushed to playground:

There are issues with not building a Qt GUI backend dll, nor tcl
support, and tests not running due to startup failures.
The last failure looks like you need to be running the tests with xvfb_run [1].
I didn't examine the others.
I don't really get a sense of what you think should be done about these issues.

Thanks Jon,
Greatly appreciate the tip about xvfb_run etc.
As for the package issues, it looks like they decided a GUI .so was no longer
required, so will not do a dynamic build as distributed;
their mention of tcl does not appear to be reflected in the cmake files as far
as I can see;
some test issues were resolved by exporting PATH containing all of the build
directories;
most other test issues appear to be what they interpret as file access writing
to a file they make readonly, but looks like errno 10 - ECHILD 10 No child
processes?
The next Scallywag run should hopefully provide some more info.
