OK, the attached patch fits cleanly in to the debian source package
infrastructure and can result in a built .deb file that actually
works.

Can those who know the system take a quick look to see if there's
anything obviously broken?  I'll file a bug report to debian with the
patch Monday; hopefully it will be picked up quickly.

Thanks,
 -George
