Thanks for reporting this. I believe this is the same issue as
https://bugs.debian.org/1125282 but I want to make sure before merging the
bugs. This bug is reported against 1.10.0+dfsg-4+b1; but from the
description, I understand that it affects 1.9.5+dfsg-1 (the version in
stable) and does *not* affect 1.10.1+dfsg-4 (the version in testing), is that
correct?

I’ve asked for a stable update to fix this in stable too.

Regards,

Stephen
