Upstream has replaced these two files in

https://github.com/jcupitt/nip2/commit/5a66f0e98b017bdd23c06f89f9b259c276a612a4

Should I try to prepare a new upload with the new profiles?  It's going
to be inconvenient because these are binary files, but if it would help,
I can create a new upload for wheezy (via unstable) that has this fix.
I just have to remind myself how to introduce a chance that can't be
represented as a patch.  (I use source format 3 (quilt) so it will be
doable by copying the binary files to the debian directory and applying
the change manually in rules.)

Please let me know whether I should do this or whether it's sufficient
that the problem will be fixed in the next upstream release that I
package.
