That may not be so simple: think of package dummy_1.2-3 in hamm, and
dummy_2.3-4 in slink only because of the freeze. One bug is
discovered which affects both, and gets fixed in 1.2-4 and 2.3-5.
What will you record as fixing-version ? 1.2-4 is definitely wrong as
2.3-4 is buggy; 2.3-5 is highly suboptimal, and makes the info useless
:(
This reminds me of a recent suggestion of mine ("An idea for the BTS
(Was: Weeding out slink bug reports)", <debian-devel@lists.debian.org>
archive/latest/6227) to really add support for distributions in the
BTS. Nobody seems interested in talking about that, though...
