Hi Andreas,

If there is only one non-free file introduced by the new upstream release, the
easiest solution is to just remove the file and go ahead with the package
update, where #805998 is fixed already.  If it helps you to make any change on
the repository layout, please go ahead.

Have a nice day,

Charles
