I concur.

For the rest of the tech-ctte, to save reading through the bug log:

* The original dispute was over the package name "libconfig", which was
  excessively generic.  There was a package by that name in Debian
  maintained by its author, and a separate package that's also packaged
  for other distributions that uses the same name.

* The Debian-specific libconfig has been orphaned and removed from lenny
  and sid.  Since then, the other libconfig has been uploaded as
  libconfig.

Given that, I think this bug is moot and can just be closed.

I don't know if we have any special procedure for this, or if I should
just go ahead and close the bug as a tech-ctte member.
