debian-policy FTBFS due to missing texlive-latex-extra build-dep



I happened to notice recently that debian-policy 3.8.1.0 fails to build
due to a missing build-dependency on texlive-latex-extra. Since it's
Architecture: all, of course, it's easy to miss this in Debian, but I
noticed it in Ubuntu and then verified it in a relatively clean Debian
chroot:

  http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26062790/buildlog_ubuntu-karmic-i386.debian-policy_3.8.1.0_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz

I've committed a fix to our git repository, of course, but I sort of
feel that we shouldn't leave this kind of thing lying around for too
long in debian-policy of all places. :-) Russ and others, would anyone
mind if I rolled 3.8.2.0 with what we have now? Or does somebody else
want to, or is there a reason not to do so (e.g. too much
Standards-Version churn)?

Thanks,
