thanks, there's some 42 packages or so affected so I decided to indeed

yeah. (maybe a bug against apt is still in order, dunno.)

I've commited the fix to git and am deploying it to piuparts.d.o atm,
though I will not reschedule the affected packages now, as there is a
huge backlog of rescheduled packages affected by the recent syntax
