I have had several instances of this problem. I posted a workaround

https://lists.dyne.org/lurker/message/20210122.105344.eab549d1.en.html

I have been doing this for over a year every time it crops up: the list
of affected packages has grown since that post, and the workaround seems
to be without consequences. Perhaps someone who knows stuff could
comment. There is mention of this issue here:

Best
