Hello Sven, Debian team,

I was about to apply a very similar fix to the "develop" branch of 
Linpac at https://sourceforge.net/p/linpac/linpac/ci/develop/tree though 
my changes didn't include the "-1" at the end of the changes.  Not sure 
if that's needed / important.  Regardless, I am planning to eventually 
merge the develop branch into the Master branch and releae 0.29 in the 
near future which will include this and other fixes.
