I'm assuming that 'Apt-listbugs says #446891 is "done in the latest
versions"' means, for example, #448406 for apt:
serious bugs of apt (0.7.8 -> ) <done>
#448406 - tries to use pselect without checking for ENOSYS (Fixed: apt/0.7.9)
grave bugs of apt (0.7.8 -> ) <pending>
#445269 - apt: crash on every operation
Summary:
apt(2 bugs)
It is 'done' from the developer perspective and Debian perspective,
but not fixed in the version user is installing.
Is this what you see?

So, what would be more useful? I am assuming that changing the
expression or explanation might help here. I agree it might be
confusing. Do you have suggestions on the wording?
My impression is that 'done / pending / forwarded' state usually doesn't
really matter from apt-listbugs user perspective, because the user
only cares if the bug is fixed in the version the user is installing.
apt-listbugs only shows the bugs which the BTS thinks is relevant to
the version being installed.
