Hello Andreas,

sorry for the late reply, but I have been able to commit now.  Thank you
for fixing this.

I mirrored my changes as "fix-debian-bug-777791" branch to
debian-med/ball.git, and deleted the temporary mirror.  The work I
pushed is equal to the patch from the last email, so it can be ignored now.

I then rebuilt the package on a fresh sid cowbuilder, but now there's a
new problem (see attachment for the exact error message) near the end of
the build, involving a static_cast.  I will look into that of course,
but I did not want to overwrite the "master" branch before contacting
you, especially not with a not-anymore-working solution.

Will report back here,

- Danny
