That, yes.
But rather than false positive I should have said "things a maintainer
can usually do ~nothing about", like RC bugs on other package where NMUs
are infaseable, or the migration is blocked by some transition, etc (in
those case it's not like the information is false, it's simply not
useful).
Anyway, doesn't really change my point that the autopkgtest mails are
welcome to me :)
