refers to the hwtools package, it's actually reported against the "Work
Needed and Prospective Packages" pseudo-package.

This actually shows a bug in debbugs -- it should have failed to allow you
to change this bug title...

If you're referring to the orphan page on the QA site, I think that only
gets updated daily or something.  The orphans page may also keep ITA
packages on there for reference, but that's less likely.
