Sure. Please note that php-randomlib was uploaded a while ago (soon
after Jessie was released, once franck.d.o got upgraded), and only made
it in the archive recently, after NEW processing.

I don’t know it is going to affect an increased number of packages, but
for sure, the “annoying” patch for php-zend-db has already been merged
upstream, and the one for php-randomlib was cherry-picked from upstream,
so both packages will be “fixed” in the next upstream release.

A systematic solution could be to not use oldstable infrastructure to
unpack material targeted to unstable/testing.

I don’t have reliable network access for a while, and won’t have one
until DebCamp, but I’ll push new upstream releases ASAP.

Regards

David
