It does help quite a lot, thanks Salvatore! I've tested things in bullseye and all is fine [1] (though it had only one rdep in there and no rdep autopkgtest, it was quite a new package at the time). Trying to help a bit more (please let me know if I have made your lives more difficult instead of easier along the way and I will try to avoid in the future), I've added your patches and uploaded to debusine to get rdeps autopkgtest [2]. Only 2 rdeps had tests, jpeg-xl and libgd2. jpeg-xl did succeed [3] and libgd2 failed [4]. Inspecting debci runs for libgd2 in stable [5], it has NEVER succeeded. The number of passed/failed tests are the same for tests with libavif update and without (regular stable/bookworm), so I think the changes are pretty safe.
