Indeed. Documenting this in this bug was also a way to advertise the 
workaround (google didn't give anything useful when I searched for this 
particular error message), and to provide information to the release team 
to help them prioritize things. I didn't mean to imply that the 
maintainers of this specific package could solve everything, it was just 
the most natural entry point for me as a user.

Thank you for your explanations.
