Upstream now has created a new tarball that includes the missing source
code.
This addresses the bug.
It took quite a while to be able to get things work out well, upstream, but
anyway, it's done now.
That tarball was used to create a new package for Debian.
Then the upload was done.
Likely things will be moving fast now, and hopefully this fixes the issue
completely.
