Yes, I agree. > I consider closing it in order > to remove the entry off the Debian Med bugs panel. At least I > mark it as "wontfix" to move the issue out of the main track of > serious bugs. I hope that okay to you? I actually prefer closed to wontfix, assuming it also helps to clean the bugs panel. To me, "wontfix" conveys the idea that the cure is worse than the disease, and it's something inherent to the bug itself. In this case it's not that we don't want to fix the bug, it's that we can't (a slightly different thing), because the Stable Release Managers will not accept new uploads, but I guess the LTS team would still be able to fix it if they wanted. Also, if we had to use wontfix for all the bugs in bookworm that we were unable to fix, we would have to use the tag a lot more, which would not be nice. I have no problem with closing the bug, as the bug was indeed fixed in a later upload. Thanks.
