Looks like systemd is not very happy with these tests on aarch64.

What do we do about it? I don't want to mark the package broken.

The tests were added to verify updating this package doesn't break perlless activation and don't actually indicate problems with this package by itself, but it looks like that test never succeeded on aarch64 even before this update.

I'd like to keep the tests imported so at least the x86_64 implementation can be tested, but I'm not sure what to do about the aarch64 test for perlless activation.

Created an issue for the build failure at #291398, and disabled the linked test for this package.
