I have good news for you:
This is open source software: YOU are part of the awesome team!
So feel free to blame yourself that you haven't taken care of it.
In fact, as we are all volunteers you can only blame yourself…

Before you are getting even more crazy feel free to post
your one line patch to this bugreport.
We need NOTHING else from you. I repeat: NOTHING ELSE!
No goddamn tcpflow logs nor any other data, just provide
your simple patch and everybody will be happy.
Thanks.
I can only speak for myself, but I haven't even tried to look at
this issue because of this sentence (and all the howling before
and after that). And I am pretty sure it will need a loooooooong time
until I feel motivated to do so thanks to your behavior in the buglog,
so if I were you I would submit a patch or keep silent until I can
provide something useful to fix the bug I respond to.
Bonus points if you can do both.
If you want to blame anyone in the meantime, blame yourself for considerable
lower the chances to get this or any related bug fixed by working hard on
demotivating at least one of the few people who regularly contribute to APT…
Thats a great achievement, given that even the worst kids in my young groups
can't make that happen, so:
Congratulations!

P.S.: Don't bother to answer, the buglog includes enough messages already and
I will not read it anyway. Everything we need is your patch now, so hurry up.
