This bug was fixed in the package germinate - 2.17

---------------
germinate (2.17) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Bump recursion limit to 3000; apparently utopic trips over the existing
    limit (LP: #1312478).

Unfortunately (from the point of view of this bug) something has changed in utopic such that I can no longer reproduce this bug. However, the updated versions still work fine in both precise and trusty (tested with "germinate -s ubuntu.utopic -d utopic --no-rdepends") and the cowboy is working fine on production, so I think that's good enough.
