Alas, you are right.  The email addresses are only visible to logged-in
users.

I've done a feisty->gutsy upgrade test.  I started from a minimal feisty
chroot, use only feisty and feisty-security repositories, and installed
xmltex and jadetex.  Following are the versions of relevant packages:
    tex-common             0.42
    xmltex                 1.9-11.1ubuntu1
    jadetex                3.13-7.1ubuntu2

Then I did a single "apt-get dist-upgrade" to gutsy, without any
problems.  After upgrade the package versions are:
    tex-common             1.9
    xmltex                 1.9-12
    jadetex                3.13-8ubuntu1

And of course, the TeX system was upgraded from teTeX to TeXlive.

So I think this bug is fixed in gutsy.

I have the package (and version) lists, apt-get logs available.  But I
think a successful upgrade is not that interesting, so I'm not attaching
them.
