He didn't close it; he tagged in +wontfix. He mentioned his reasoning
(the fact that there's userspace graphical boot screens), but it's not
apparent due to the way the BTS works. FYI, Christoph, people will
usually email <bug#>@bugs.debian.org, and BCC control@bugs.debian.org, w/
that same email body; control@bugs.debian.org processes the commands, and
sending to <bug#>@bugs.debian.org means the message shows up on the main
page of the bug report. I'd also recommend CC'ing
<bug#>-submitter@bugs.debian.org, so that the original submitter sees the
update and can respond in a timely fashion. Don't ask me why the BTS
doesn't automatically forward responses to the submitter; that would seem
to be the logic thing to do. :/
If the kernel team disagrees, they can follow up to the bug, change the
tag, etc. I can't say I disagree; I quickly scanned the patch, and it
definitely could've been pared down a bit.
