I think there is some value in keeping the full logs for closed bug
reports (where the bug has been fixed), in case this information is needed
in the future. Would it use a lot of disk space? I suspect not but I am
guessing.
In the case of libc4, these bugs were closed because the package is
no longer maintained. I think there may be value in keeping these bug
reports, because that functionality no longer exists in Debian (but could
be revived in the future).
