this issue was a problem in rkward. In rkward itself it has been fixed
since a while (version 0.5.0c to be precise). Debian unstable also has
a fixed package (0.5.0d-3), already. However, as is the nature of
debian testing, it takes a while until the fixed package makes it to
testing, and when exactly this will happen is unknown. You can take a
look at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/r/rkward.html">http://packages.qa.debian.org/r/rkward.html</a> to track the status
of the package, but there is no way to speed up this process.<br>
