Hi,

src:plasma-bigscreen in unstable can't migrate to testing because the QA
infrastructure couldn't reproduce the some binary packages in
unstable while it could reproduce the version in testing [1, 2].

From the diff it looks like some randomness is compiled in, maybe due to
some auto generated source code?

Feel free to reach out if you need help debugging the problem but I
assume it will not be easy. Alternatively you can ask the release team
for an exception [3].

Cheers Jochen
