No, in fact, the tracker finds #704070. The status information about

Right now we rely on the "package" field to assign the bugs tagged
help to the corresponding source package.
The old PTS uses the same information but does a supplementary binary->source
mapping on top of this field.
It would be nice if we could just use the "source" field instead of doing
our own mapping bug the value of the "source" field doesn't make much sense
to me... why does it list so many source packages and not only
one like on https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=704070 ?
