apt-listbugs issue or bug?

[Clive Menzies <clive@clivemenzies.co.uk>]

Hi

Upgrading both 32/64 bit sid systems overnight, I'm seeing the following
error:

Ack!  Something bad happened while installing packages.  Trying
to recover:

Googling reveals a similar issue last september but it seems to suggest
that apt-listbugs will throw this error if debian bts is unavailable;
however, BTS seems to be fine.

Is anyone else seeing this?  Or can you suggest a solution?

Thanks

Clive
