Did this legitimally happen upon upgrade? Because I would've expected
gobby-0.4 and gobby-0.5 to have been around. (Of course one can force
this to appear using dpkg -i and not satisfying dependencies, just
wondering if that happened here.)

I'll fix it anyhow, just trying to figure out if that needs to go into
jessie.

Kind regards and thanks for the report
