Glad to know that you have tried to build your own Tails. Unfortunately,
you did so at a time where two things where broken: multiarch plymouth
has migrated to testing, and the custom ikiwiki repository was
inacessible.

The issue is fixed in both devel and experimental branches. devel is
really close to 0.12.1, so I suggest you try to build it instead.

This one is weird. The other issues (plymouth at least) should not have
left the build to finish.

Fixed in devel and experimental.

Fixed in devel and experimental.
