OK, then my impression was right, it's a private fork.

Well, this is nothing unusual.

IMO, the appropriate approach to this would be to either "patch the original
package" or to make your "private fork" a "public fork"/"official project".

Private forks don't help anybody - How do other distros handle this issue in
this particular case?

> I will bump the release next time :)  
TIA.
