     The BTS page says : 

| Normally, the only people that are allowed to close a bug report
| are the submitter of the bug and the maintainer(s) of the package
| against which the bug is filed. There are exceptions to this rule,
| for example, the bugs filed against unknown packages or certain
| generic pseudo-packages. When in doubt, don't close bugs, first ask

| Bug reports should be closed by sending email to
| nnn-done@bugs.debian.org. The message body needs to contain an
| explanation of how the bug was fixed.
 
     As the submitter, you may close the bug yourself, following the
above procedure. 

Regards,

Bob
