inkscape 1.4 was recently uploaded to Experimental. Unfortunately, it
fails to build on too many release architectures. (The release
architectures are the architectures with white highlighting in the
below link.) This needs to be fixed before we can upload inkscape 1.4
to Unstable.

The issues are related to test failures, i.e. the compilation part of
the build succeeds, but the test suite fails for certain tests.

I'm not sure how important these tests are. I know Debian maintainers
have disabled tests in the past due to build failures on less common architecture, but I don't know where the line is drawn. In case it
helps, the test failures can be grouped as follows:

arm64, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x:
36 - test_geom-pathstroke (Failed)

arm64, i386, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x:
333 - cli_pdfinput-font-spacing_check_output (Failed)
335 - cli_pdfinput-font-style_check_output (Failed)

s390x
347 - cli_pdfinput-multi-page-sample_check_output (Failed)

Gianluigi already reported the failure for test #36 to lib2geom, as
above.

I don't know what the maintainers would like to see happen with
333/335/347.
