It's nothing to do with britney being "confused" - the bug lists come from the BTS, britney simply uses them. The BTS indicates that #717154 only applies to unstable, and is thus "new". That's perfectly logical, since the open-vm-tools-dkms binary package only exists in unstable - there's therefore no way it can be buggy in testing, and any RC bug it contains is thus a regression. If this bug only applies to the -dkms binary package then it _is_ a regression and relative to testing and thus _should_ be stopping the migration, not hacked around. Clarification would be appreciated, so that the bug metadata can be set appropriately.
