The package was built before that bug was reported. I had in mind to close
the bug manually when the package is uploaded. If you want me to re-built
the package just to update the changelog; I can do that.

As far as I know, there is no new devel package. Only the binary depend on
libfltk1.1 is needed, which will be filled in automatically by shlibs.
There is nothing to change in build-depends.
