FYI, related to this bug, there was discussion in Debian devel mailing list about the use of debug essages by default.

Just add a --debug option or a DEBUG environment variable and you then have a well-behaved program rather than one which spews irrelevant crap all over your work. (...) These messages add zero value, and should not be enabled in a production release -- their developers should have noticed and fixed them prior to release. In most cases they aren't even debugging output -- they are pointless chatter that noone except the developers would care about.
