It is in fact very easy to drop the file in question which is not used
in ctn 3.2.0 any more.  We did so in Jessie.  However, I personally do
not want to do the possibly needed backporting and I have no problems to
remove these three packages from stable considering that they are really
low popcon packages and users could cherry pick from testing if they
really need the package.  I keep Neurodebian team in CC since they might
have a different release strategy.  Feel free to do whatever does not
create any work for me. ;-)

Kind regards

        Andreas.
