Thank you for the review Andreas.

You are right regarding the appropriate bug to close, changed. I do
not see any changes necessary for CMake 4, after compiling using the
`cmake` package in experimental (4.1.2-1), so I will close this bug
after the upload.

I have run routine-update. Thanks for that note, I haven't used that
utility before.

regards,
Steve
