Ok, as an Englishman I read:
	Updating telegnome introduces new bugs: #464331
as:
	When I update telegnome in testing from 0.0.10-7 (with RC bugs)
	to 0.1.0-3 (without), there is a new bug which didn't exist
	previously.
which is untrue.

If the *newer* teleglobe had an RC bug I would understand this output
but as it doesn't it seems a little odd.

Perhaps it could just keep the out of date stuff and drop the bug
stuff in this case where the bug is on the old version not the new
version.
