Source: u-boot Version: 2025.01-3 Hi,
mips64el has been dropped from Debian testing earlier this year and isn't supported in trixie, nor in forky. Some of the mips64el cross toolchain is in a very sore state and we want to remove it from testing. However, at least via u-boot, these packages are in the key package set. Can you please stop building mips64el qemu targets for now?

Helmut tried to explain to me in Hamburg why src:cross-toolchain-base-mipsen is in the key package set. I must admit I didn't understand, but there's something with qemu IIRC. It might take a bit of work to fix that. Hopefully you (Helmut) are willing to try again to explain the situation?
There is at least one reason, but there may be more. u-boot somehow is a key package via d-i iirc.u-boot build-depends-indep gcc-mips64el-linux-gnuabi64 [!mips64el], gcc-mipsel-linux-gnu [!mipsel]
