Package: bsdmainutils
Version: 8.0.8
Severity: normal

Since I don't run other releases of Debian I can't say that the col bug only
applies to sid/squeeze.  col -bx < typescript >typescript.tmp in previous
versions had all of the escape codes cleaned out of it.  That's not the case
anymore, command runs but fails to change typescript in any noticeable way. 
This technique for cleaning typescript files generated by the script utility
was documented in debian-reference package.
