Apologies if I'm missing something, but I'm slightly confused about the
status of this issue in unstable.
The changelog of 0~20151023.git34aa242-1 indicates that that version
includes a warning - which I was expecting to be similar to your
proposed debdiff for jessie - but all I can see in the diff from
0~20151003.git339ec8a-1 is a note in the documentation.
