What is the problem with closing the Debian bugs in the Debian
changelog, and letting the Ubuntu MOTU (I hope I am using the right
terminology here) handle the Ubuntu bug tracking?

I am speaking from the standpoint of a Debian Developer that is not
affiliated with Ubuntu. If a Developer is handling both the Debian and
Ubuntu packaging, then they can do as they feel best.

I know that I test the Debian bugs prior to closing. I don't test Ubuntu
builds - so I wold find it very presumptuous to close an Ubuntu bug.

Or am I missing what LP: ####### does?
