Thankfully there isn't an actual package in the archive with that name,
or the maintainers would probably be rather confused by the bug.

It didn't. It migrated to testing _yesterday_; specifically, as a result
of the 2200UTC britney run yesterday, which would then have become
visible on mirrors as a result of today's 0152 dinstall.
The script is run once a day, so will see packages that appeared in
testing in the 0152 dinstall (from the 2200 britney run) and the 1352
dinstall (from the the 1000 britney run).

It's been in testing for a couple of dinstalls already, and there's one
more before the next britney run. We can indeed remove the package, but
there's no way we can know if any testing user has installed it in the
meantime.

That bug was opened at 2105UTC yesterday. The RC bug list generated by
the BTS for the relevant britney run was prepared at 1800UTC, so did not
contain the bug.
In general, a "this shouldn't migrate" bug probably wants filing before
the package reaches 9/10 days.
