Probably "false positive" was not the right term, you're right.
What I was trying to say is that, at the time the bug was filed, the
issue was already fixed in Debian unstable. So maybe there was no point
filing a bug.... Ah, but wait, you need to file the bug so that the
package gets kicked out of testing at some point, in case the fix that
is in unstable never reaches testing (like in this case)...
I don't think there's something to improve in the template. I didn't pay
attention to the version the bug was reported against. I guess I just
need more practice with the bugtracker :)
All the best, and sorry for the noise!
