Hello Michael,
Sorry for the delay, for some reason I did not get a copy of your messages.
I just received the automatic notification of FTP masters about the NMU,
just today, and the priority updates on the bug.
The change you did on the NMU was OK, I will apply it on my source repo
and prepare next upload.
Thanks,
Etienne
