Dear Maintainer (Rob Browning?),

This problem in emacs 25 (in Debian old-stable) is the same as the
problem that was fixed in Debian current stable (buster) emacs 26
with this changelog message:
https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/e/emacs/emacs_26.1+1-3.2+deb10u1_changelog
[START-QUOTATON]
emacs (1:26.1+1-3.2+deb10u1) buster; urgency=high

  * Update the EPLA packaging key (previous key expires 2019-09-23) via
    the upstream commit f16785d361097df9fddfcc0b60ae6f0d92e7e911.  Add the
    old and new keyrings to debian/ and debian/source/include-binaries
    since debian/patches/ can't handle git binary diffs.  Thanks to Stefan
    Monnier for reporting the problem and providing the patch.

Ahh, so it sounds like it we might want to try to fix this in LTS too.
Assuming so, and if no one else handles it before I get to it, I'll try
to see how that process works, and if the change would be acceptable.

Thanks

Hi Rob,

Sorry for the delay. Note that this bug report is talking about stretch, which
is not handled by LTS (yet). You may still be able to fix this bug via a stretch
point release update, see the reportbug release.debian.org template.

Cheers,
Emilio
