I will have a look at it ASAP. Unfortunately, it's not possible for me to
fix it before Tuesday. I'll upload a fixed version then.

Raphael's suggestion is probably the solution to the problem. I already
suspected something like that. Interestingly, it did not show up when I
rebuild the packages (with pbuilder).
