I think that's because you misunderstood me.

Sorry, I was unclear (if I guess right how you interpreted my words).
I didn't mean to claim that #562198 is the same bug as #557091, but
that #562198 is the same bug I was seeing. My bad. My rationale was,
however, that if I had come to #557091 looking for clues, I probably
am not the only one doing so, so having this information in that bug
report would do good for others.

Why? Well, I'm talking about configuring the package failing in
exactly the same way, modulo some obscure log file which it says it
produced under /tmp. I did read both reports, thank you for asking,
found #557091 when looking for solution and thought for a good while
it was the same bug, since it manifested so similarly.

I guess seeing it from a package maintainer POV might be different,
but to me, and I believe to many other normal users, bugs that
manifest themselves with the _exact_same_output_ when configuring the
package do indeed seem quite similar. I could tell after investigating
for half an hour that they aren't the same, and thought I should save
other people from having to spend that time (if they have the skills)
by having that info in the #557091 bug.
