In my case, #538907 was reported against shorewall-perl (built from the shorewall-perl source package). Upstream, the Shorewall project reorganized its packages and shorewall-perl became a dummy binary package built from the shorewall source package. The upload that closed that bug was after the switch of the binary package, and the bug was in fact properly closed. > To make things even more complicated, the first upload of the new > packages would be to experimental... > This I do not know about.
