correct. #763766 is blocked by debhelper while #752409 is blocked by debhelper
and the Jessie release.

We opened the bugs to track this issue with krb5. At any time where either of
the two bugs was not blocked by another, it would've been okay to apply them to
krb5 without breaking something. This was the case for at least #763766 for a
while.

Since #763766 was not yet resolved I posted a follow-up patch which makes use
of not-yet-merged debhelper functionality. If it would mean you'd apply the
patch earlier, then I can follow up on #763766 with a patch that doesn't
require a newer debhelper version.

Originally two bugs were filed because at some point in time, one (#763766) was
resolvable immediately while the other (#752409) had to wait until #744246 was
resolved. Now we know that #744246 will only be resolved once Jessie is
released. If you want to wait with applying anything until Jessie is released,
then I think it makes sense to close #763766 and keep #752409 open.

cheers, josch
