I have an updated package prepared[1]. Could you please test it and
report back if it works as intended? I have done some minor testing
but independent confirmation would be great. Fortunately the commit
applied very cleanly. If you prefer to rebuild the package yourself,
the relevant changes are in the fsateler/jessie branch of the git
repository[2]
