Hi Jonathan (and Eugene)!   :-)

Please do not reassign an already pending bug report, otherwise I have
to drop the "Closes:" reference in the changelog before next upload...
Or am I mistaken?

Since I have already fixed the apt-listbugs side of this bug, I think
the best course of action is cloning the bug report and reassigning the
cloned report. The above commands should rectify the situation.

Thanks to you for investigating further!
And for pinpointing the cause of the bug and proposing a patch to
Eugene!
I'll obviously leave the discussion about the patch to Eugene (on the
cloned bug report).

Bye.
