Hi Andreas,

Ouch, looking up that issue, it turns out that would be me
having deleted the d/hyphy-common.links file with commit
5cc7d1a7d2bf6008cd70e422f09edfce856d25e7 while drowning it in an
unrelated change.  I'm sorry for the confusion it caused.  :(

Reintroducing the link triggers various lintian errors and
warnings, so my initial change from version 2.5.18+dfsg-1 might
have been justified actually.  I acknowledge the bug and am
seeing how to untangle this.

Many Thanks for having spotted that problem!
