This all looks good to me.

The -3 upload looks suitable for bookworm to me. Unfortunately, it
misses the PR, so if I were to locally patch debcrossgen to use the
env2mfile implementation, it would pass --debarch=auto, but env2mfile
would consider auto as an architecture name (given that your PR is
missing) and fail.
Would you agree to either include the PR in your upload or pass
--debarch=$DEB_HOST_ARCH instead of --debarch=auto in debcrossgen?
Doing so would allow me to switch my local autobuilder to env2mfile with
a one line patch:
sbuild ... '--chroot-setup-commands='sed -i -e "/revert_to_internal
=/s/True/False" /usr/share/meson/debcrossgen || :'
I still think that revert_to_internal should keep being True for
bookworm and given what I've seen, please flip it to False in the trixie
cycle.
