Maybe you want to wait on that. Could be though that it only affects systemd users.

Apparently it has been fixed today, coming from Debian directly. Grabbing it now and will report back if it's broken.

I can at least confirm that it does not affect systems with the standard Debian kernel and not using systemd.

I'm going to dist-upgrade my Elektra anyway, let's see if I break it.
