Which is wrong imo. It only makes people stumble across ancient gavl bugs,
which were fixed years ago. People who manage to pull lumiera (and other
dependencies like nobug) from git will also be able to download and
install the latest public .tar.gz for gavl.

No offence intended, but considering the timescales, at which lumiera is
developed, one can safely assume that even todays CVS version of gavl will
have made it into Debian once a public lumiera release appears ;)

You need a ticket for adding one #include line??
