Yep. Done.

Good catch!

Even with these additions to debian/rules, I think it would compile an
improper version number, built from a git hash from the salsa git repo
instead of the last commit of the upstream repo.

So I patched the CmakeList file to prevent regeneration. There was
already a quilt patch for it. Easy.

I just pushed.

Kind regards
Thomas
