thanks

Since this is a regression introduced in an NMU, I'm skipping over the
waiting period and uploading a fix directly to incoming.  The patch for this
is attached.

With this patch, the package is again no longer binNMU-safe.  There are ways
to construct a binNMU-safe dep from an arch: all to an arch: any package,
but they're non-trivial and I think out of scope for this NMU.

Thanks,
