I'm happy to make that change.  But because I hadn't been thinking in
terms of team maintainance until now, I would have been entirely
unaware that this change had been made until I tried to push some
other change to the git repository, had I not happened to see the
upload message posted to this list.  So if there are any other
packages in a similar situation, please do let the maintainer know
that you're making such a change in advance of doing so!

Now that this change has been done, I must just be careful to use a
slightly different workflow in future, doing a git pull before
starting to work on a package, in case someone from the wider team has
made a change that I hadn't noticed.

Best wishes,
