This should be fixed in 1.11.4-1, published now to the debian repo. We’ve confirmed it at least loads, so the remaining bugs are just regular bugs 😉

We haven’t identified a cause, but it appears the build script just didn’t do its job. We’re taking a look at hardening the release process separate to this stuff anyways, so will likely resolve it there.

Apologies for the inconvenience.
