If the forth time worked because of sheer luck, then please no, keep the
bug open until the build is less flaky. We need packages to be build
without failure [1]. Having to baby-sit flaky is not really an option as
there are too many packages in the Debian archive.

Also, your commit message suggests that the upstream change that's
needed isn't in Debian yet?
