Try doing `dpkg -A bumprace.deb` and see if it fixes it. does not help... oh, now it works, I deleted the complete available file and recreated it with apt-get.

Also my test packages with obsolete names are now no longer listed, excellent, I should do that from time to time, to get rid of obsolete package names.
BTW bumprace is installed now in woody, maybe you want to try it :-) Christian
