I don’t have more info than what’s already in the bug report; the upstream
release notes only say “fixed numerous bugs” in relation to this and I never
found any corresponding bug in the upstream tracker.

I’m not *going* to make a release via backports.debian.org, I did so in
August 2024, backporting version 2.9. Feel free to backport that to bullseye,
I think that’s best.

Regards,

Stephen
