I tried to make the pull request for that and learned that those
packages don't exist in Debian 12 (bookworm) as used on CI. I'd
tested locally on Debian 13 (trixie). So maybe we have to wait a
short time for trixie to become the new Debian stable release (due any
time soon AFAIK), then update CI to trixie, and then we can do that.
Unless someone knows better.
