Understandable, would not do as as well to install unstable packages
into production systems. Was just hoping you have a way to
trigger/reproduce and confirm.

Syvestre did close the bug in https://bugs.debian.org/933749#27 so if
someone affected can confirm this would be great. Otherwise whoever
encounters it after 0.11.1-1 can re-open the bug.
