Ok, given this and that the current diff is trivially reviewable, please
go ahead with the upload to unstable and notify us via this bug once it
has been built on all release architectures (by removing the moreinfo
tag). ...

The procedure depends on what we are dealing with, though we generally
prefer to reuse open unblock bugs.  An incremental (or full) debdiff
since testing is generally preferred - also as a self-control test for
you to assert that the source dir hasn't been affected by a partial
patch (e.g. from an earlier iteration).

Thanks,
