util-linux: bugs #51936 and #51937 can be closed

[Thierry Laronde <thierry.laronde@polynum.com>]

Hi,

I have previously sent mails on debian-devel, to the maintainer and to the
submitter.
The maintainer doesn't answer.
The submitter --- Wichert...--- is only "virtual" at the moment.

So, here is the problem.

The two bugs report are linked. The submitter and the upstream of one of the
program involved (cfdisk) agree that the problem is, either, a hardware,
a BIOS or a kernel problem with a particular disk.

So there is a problem, but not with the package having the bug (and not with
the debian work).

Can someone tell me :

o How can we close the bugs but perhaps keep a track of them (the problem is
actual --- perhaps with the kernel)
o Who is allowed to manipulate the bugs if the maintainer doesn't respond ?

TIA
