FWIW yesterday on #debian-ftp:
pochu: can someone look at valadoc at NEW? it's bumped the
soname but there are no rdeps so is fine, and the removal of
vala 0.16 support means we can remove vala-0.16 from jessie
and https://packages.qa.debian.org/v/valadoc.html shows that
0.23.2~git20140902-1 was accepted into unstable today.
No idea if that resolves the issue you are seeing. It doesn't explicitly
close the bug you reference, it only closes #755207 (removal of 0.16
support).
Ian.
