http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/version.cgi?package=phylip;found=phylip%2F1%3A3.6.1-2;fixed=phylip%2F1%3A3.65-1;info=1

phylip 1:3.6.1-2 is still buggy and is in unstable and testing.

This is fixed in cdd/0.3.11 which has nothing to do with the package
in which the bug was found, debian-med. It should either be fixed in a
debian-med version, or if it is a bug in cdd, reassigned to cdd,
marked found with an appropriate version, and closed with an
appropriate version.

0.6.0-10 is buggy and is still present in unstable:

Sesse has gone and written a nice tutorial on version tracking which
will help resolve some of these questions:

http://wiki.debian.org/BugsVersionTracking

and you'll notice that almost all of the questions I've refered to the
version graphs, which is how I myself figure out what is happening;
they help to clarify this sort of thing quite a bit.
