Package: apt-listbugs
Version: 0.0.48
Severity: important

>From the manpage of apt-listbugs:

,----
|  o -l | --showless By default, apt-listbugs ignores bugs already existed
|  in your system as many as pos- sible. This option shows them, too.
| 
|  o -g | --showgreater By default, apt-listbugs ignores newer bugs than
|  upgrade packages as many as pos- sible. This option shows them, too. If
|  both -l and -g specified, apt-listbugs doesn't access to cgi.  These
|  two options are currently enabled by default because bugs.debian.org
|  rejects apt-listbugs.
`----

I couldn't see any information what this "rejects" means, and also no
bug yet against bugs.debian.org.  Since apt-listbugs' behavior makes it
nearly useless currently, this should really be fixed.  But you can't
expect the BTS admins to do anything if you don't request a change.

Regards, Frank
