Hi Roberto

Thanks for the quick response. This was my original thought but I was
unsure as the regression description on
https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Development described the use a little
differently (did not consider the case when the text was wrong).
Maybe that information should be updated? I'm not 100% sure what to write
there though.

Best regards
