Upstream accepted the new profiles, and I finally got a Debian Salsa MR
submitted for them:

Thanks for your patience, lots of other work plus recovering from being

Once this is merged, I assume the follow-up will be to find everything
that needs the Glycin abstraction in Debian, and add it? I can tackle
that next.
