Not yet - I discovered that after Arnaud uploaded 1.1.6-3
I would propose to wait for 1.1.6-3 to be built on all architectures
(except mispel) and propagate to testing. When we have a 1.1.6
in testing we can upload another one with the fix.

Maybe in the meantime upstream also comments on this patch.
