It would be nice to avoid a broken last name; currently we have
“Mu?kovac” in both debian/changelog and git history, we probably
should fix the changelog. That would be Muškovac, right?

Anyway, Philip, thanks for the patch; since the bug depends on
pulling stuff from experimental, I'm lowering the severity for
the time being.

Mraw,
KiBi.
