How about my suggestion:

I guess an easy solution form the Debian side would be an
Debian.NEWS/debconf reminder that all previously generated pk/mtf
files should be deleted, as the sources *may* have changed, which can
cause weird effects (see this ticket).

Are you afraid we have to to this before every stable release as
people have forgotten it?
