Sorry, I had not created this tag. Now fixed.

FTR, we don't use pristine-tar for this package.

That's not the way to go, since 3.11.6 is *not* the release we want to
base our stuff on (see my recent email + ticket updating about the

3.11.6+tails1 orig tarball from our devel APT suite. Should be
mostly equivalent.
