Can you give a hint what exactly should be looked at?

The bug did not make it clear that there is any problem left at all when 
I looked at it recently.

The last message was closing the bug.

There was a control command reopening the bug without giving any 
rationale, but the last control command was
  fixed 832931 10.0.27-1

buildd.debian.org says that 10.0.27-0+deb8u1 was installed on jessie.[1]

If there is a problem left somewhere it is well-hidden, and not visible 
immediately when looking at the bug - I thought this was already resolved.
