[Bug 1959629] [NEW] lintian hangs during a debuild or sbuild

[fossfreedom]

Public bug reported:

Uplifting to the latest lintian on jammy

a debuild -S -k0xkey on a package, the debuild never finishes - it gets
stuck at the lintian stage.

I have to downgrade lintian to the previous version from impish

Similarly, running a sbuild on any package, lintian never finishes if I
include lintian checks

Now I have to workaround via sbuild -d jammy --no-run-lintian

my ~/.sbuildrc is

# Name to use as override in .changes files for the Maintainer: field
# (mandatory, no default!).
$maintainer_name='xxxxx <a at b.com>';

# Default distribution to build.
$distribution = "jammy";
# Build arch-all by default.
$build_arch_all = 1;

# When to purge the build directory afterwards; possible values are "never",
# "successful", and "always".  "always" is the default. It can be helpful
# to preserve failing builds for debugging purposes.  Switch these comments
# if you want to preserve even successful builds, and then use
# "schroot -e --all-sessions" to clean them up manually.
$purge_build_directory = 'successful';
$purge_session = 'successful';
$purge_build_deps = 'successful';
# $purge_build_directory = 'never';
# $purge_session = 'never';
# $purge_build_deps = 'never';

# Directory for writing build logs to
$log_dir=$ENV{HOME}."/ubuntu/logs";
$run_lintian = 1;
$lintian_opts = ['-i', '-I', '--pedantic'];

# don't remove this, Perl needs it:
1;

All jammy sbuilds have worked before the latest lintian was released.

Thoughts as to what is the issue here?
