Ah, this one is _weird_. I was going to ask why this happened, given
that I routinely pipe my NMUs through debdiff before uploading, and here
is the answer:
$ debdiff beast_0.7.1-5.1+b1_amd64.deb beast_0.7.1-5.2_amd64.deb
File lists identical (after any substitutions)
i.e., on amd64 there is no such file difference.
Still, the files are there in the .deb and should indeed be removed; if
you can prepare a .dsc I'll be happy to sponsor its upload, can you?
Otherwise please ping me and I'll do another NMU to fix this.
(Also, it would be nice to investigate why the files were not there in
the last i386 package, probably they got introduced by some change in
the toolchain and slipped in upon binNMUs?)
Cheers.
