Hi!

I don't understand the last comment here.
Of course there is a bug - it is this one.

The reason the debdiff in the request says "Closes: xxxx", is a
chicken-and-egg problem. You are supposed to attach the debdiff to the
request, but before you make the request its BTS number does not yet
exists - so you can't include it in the attachment at creation time.
After I got the confirmation back with the number I updated the
changelog with the bug number.
