To elaborate on the closing: One of requirements for stable update listed in Debian Developer Reference 5.5.1:
* The bug should be of severity "important" or higher. This bug wasn't marked as important and it doesn't seem important enough to warrant a stable update. It's fixed upstream and in testing so I've closed. Let me know it's prefered to use `fixed` in this case and leave the bug open even though I don't intend to fix in stable. Cheers, Jakub Ružička
