I'm aware.
I also got another bug on this a little while ago #874683 about the same
thing.

mumble 1.3.x that works with QT5 isn't released yet and they don't want
me to upload a package to Debian until it is. I was specifically
requested not to upload snapshots.

Also mumble 1.3.x source contains unreleasable files -- these get
stripped out by upstream's release scripts which need updating for the
new version, which hasn't been done because 1.3.x is not quite ready for
release.

I'll discuss this with upstream.
