I'm currently short on time so this is unlikely to happen soonish (as
for the next point relesae) for stretch. Feel free to NMU.
I'll upload a new version to sid so this can be fixed in stretch.

Once I get around I'll test

    ttps://github.com/eventable/vobject/issues/51#issuecomment-310470337

as well since this would fix #841247.
