Thanks.

I kept away from packaging this "latest 1.5 prerelease" version since
FEDORA was changing too may things and I thought it will cause more
trouble for wheezy.  I think Asias He packaged this for experimental to
get ready for wheezy+1.  

I think fixing this bug is good idea as long as it stay in experimental
until wheezy release.
