FWIW, you can see the options used in the package build here:

I'm afraid this isn't likely to be fixed in the 2.8 packages - these have
already been dropped from testing, and will get removed from unstable
too in the near future, so fixing this in unstable would be wasted
effort.  The only place it might make sense to try to fix this is in
wheezy, and this bug doesn't seem to qualify for an update to stable:

Can you check if 3.0 is affected, and file a bug if so?  You're in a
much better position to check that than we are...

Cheers,
