Dear Hamish, This type of bug closure causes me to have little confidence in the Debian bug tracking system. While version changes occurred in xlibs and pcb in the 2001 timeframe, the bug I filed was based on the very latest versions of these packages in the Debian testing distribution. I upgrade my installation every few days.
Also, your statement "I think this bug . . . has been fixed . . . ." tells me you don't know if it has actually been fixed, or if it has cropped up again. Without knowing, how can you close the bug report??
