this issue is blocking my package reform-tools to transition to testing. I have sent a patch fixing this issue to this bug nine days ago and CC-ed the uploader as well as the maintainer without any reaction since then. I am thus following the developer-reference recommendation to perform an NMU fixing this issue with zero-delay. Please find the diff of my NMU attached at the bottom of this mail.
