Excellent. The diff is nice and small, so I've had a look over it,
compiled it up and installed it locally. Seems to all be fine, so I'll
upload now - only change is to add a Closes: to the changelog for this

Feel free to give me a prod next time you do a release; I can't promise
I'll have time to help, but I'll try not to get confused. :)
