# actually I disagree with that but the handling for this should be consistent
# and the netbase maintainer handled the other bugs the same way
block 560238 by 562954
# merge, 560142 has important, so downgrading this, too
severity 562954 important

java-common is a package like any else. And it's not something one should
report ugs on which are not caused by it.

(The change was in netbase -and see http://bugs.debian.org/netbase. I'll
not judge the decision from here, you need to talk to the netbase maintainer)).
