I have installed debbugs 0.30 unde GNU/Linux, using

GNU Emacs 29.0.50 (build 29, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version
 3.24.31, cairo version 1.17.4) of 2022-01-22

In buffer *Compile-Log* there is

No error, and also no compilation of debbugs-autoloads.el.

Whatever it means. debbugs-autoloads.el contains at the end:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; Local Variables:
;; version-control: never
;; no-byte-compile: t
;; no-update-autoloads: t
;; coding: utf-8-emacs-unix
;; End:
;;; debbugs-autoloads.el ends here
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

This looks ok to me. The user error is raised in
`hack-local-variables--find-variables'. There has been a change in that
function recently (2dad332a1439b59a62cd5ed0d8e3626d9e91e3e5), don't know
whether this is related. Adding Stefan to Cc.
