 It's 'only' 37 days, but that's long enough even.

 I totally agree. Then of course I've already gone on and investigated
this issue with its upstream developer. Turns out it's a regression in
src:lcms2 and already fixed in its Git HEAD. Its upstream developer
(Cc-d) noted there might be a new release soon.
How do you see it now Marti? Do you know which commit might it be so I
can ask the lcms2 maintainer to backport it to the Debian package
instead?

Thanks,
Laszlo/GCS
