Thanks for fixing this bug in the experimental version. That said after
discussing with various persons on IRC, I am not convinced that this
version will be uploaded to unstable in time for Jessie. I have
therefore prepared and NMU fixing only this specific bug and uploaded it 
to DELAYED/5. You will find the patch attached. Please feel free to ask
for it to be removed from the delayed queue if you prefer to get the
package fixed another way (in a timely manner though).
