The actual error message here appears to be this:

This could be a bug in ikiwiki, or it could be a regression or behaviour
change in some other component, like perhaps po4a or the gettext toolchain.
Possibly related to (but not the same issue as) #1072760.
I can reproduce a similar failure by rebuilding ikiwiki for unstable in
sbuild (in a Debian 12 VM).
I see that intrigeri has been the main author of the po plugin: perhaps
they can make this plugin work again?
If that isn't possible, it might be proportionate to disable the po plugin
and disable its test coverage, so that at least the other parts of ikiwiki
can remain usable.
