Hey,

thx for all your work you put into that! 
Thanks a lot, that you already created a MR that fixes the issue

I've marked this bug as forwarded to the MR, that helps BTS to check on 
updates and inform this bug, if the MR get merged.
As you provide other useful information, I updated the metadata for this bug.

>From a Debian point of view we now wait till upstream merges, before we apply 
patch older version. That way we make sure, that we do not fork away from 
upstream.

Let's hope upstream reacts within a suitable time frame and we don't need to 
find workarounds.

Regards,

hefee
