Well, I thought I had. But then I got:

  Rejected:
  budgie-desktop_10.4+git20171031.10.g9f71bb8-1.2ubuntu2.dsc: Version older than that in the archive. 10.4+git20171031.10.g9f71bb8-1.2ubuntu2 <= 10.4+git20180806.01.933f78fc03d-0ubuntu1

and it seems like the new version includes my patch. So... thanks!

🕺 👌
