There were also several other changes, which really should be mentioned 
in the changelog imho:

- an update to Uploaders
- a tightening of the debhelper Build-Depends (largely a no-op due to 
debian/compat, but should still be mentioned)
- the addition of "(= ${binary:Version})" to the libsdl-gfx1.2-dev 
Recommends

I've unblocked the package to get the bug fix in, but please bear this 
in mind.

Regards,

Adam
