Well, on the line just above what you quoted, apt-listchanges says "moin
(1.3)" which means the news item is relates to package updates/upgrades
from before 1.3.

I will consider avoid confusion by simply not mention which prior
version doesn't work.

This was fixed in 1.3.4-2 now in Debian unstable. Thanks for noticing.

Good point. I will improve the text in NEWS.Debian(.gz).

I understand your disappointment. It is similar to that of Toni Mueller
on bug#304054, so I hereby merge those. Please read
http://bugs.debian.org/304054 for my clarification in that other bugreport.
