I'm already aware of that. But that don't means that this should not be
fixed on sid isn't it?

In this case, upgrading the package to the newer upstream version is
quite easy.

I could provide a .dsc with the changes required if you want, but I
don't think I did nothing special about it. I just put the debian/
directory of the old package on the new upstream tarball, updated the
changelog and cleaned debian/patches/*

I don't think this is an appropriate approach to deal with this problem.
I rather would ask you to remove the package util-vserver from Debian
sid completely than to have it in a broken state.

Thanks for your understanding.
