I've just uploaded bb 1.3rc1-8.2 to DELAYED/1. Following is the
reduced debdiff which contains all manual changes. If necessary, I can
also reschedule the upload.

Building the source package always updates config.guess and
config.sub, but I suppressed them from the following debdiff.

+BB vs PulseAudio
+================
+
+Unfortunately BB does not work under X if PulseAudio is active and
+Music is requested. If you have PulseAudio installed and want to show
+off BB with Music, you can do that by switching to the virtual text
+console and running BB there.
+
+Due to this issue Music in BB is turned of by default in Debian.
+
+This issue is tracked in the Debian Bug Tracking System at
+https://bugs.debian.org/761023

I'll also file an unblock request for that upload soon.

                Regards, Axel
