That's irrelevant. The bug as you filed it applies to _all versions of the package in Debian_, which is wrong and will just annoy the Release Team (as this message indicates...). Either don't use the BTS to file issues which only affect mentors.d.n packages, or use sane found versions. If the bug doesn't apply to any version currently in the archive, then please close it now and use an alternative means to contact the maintainer; the BTS is for tracking issues with packages in Debian. Also, as looking at the package for slightly longer would have shown, *I'm not the maintainer*.

And yes, libreadline5-dev is gone and many people (including at least parts of the release team) aren't overly happy about that. > Please make sure you have read and understand what I've written, if > you have questions just ask back and I'll try to help.
