I should shut up, since I don't know how this "<removed>" tag is
supposed to work with the security tracker, but... even when cupsys is
removed from unstable, it will be still present in testing for some
time, and in testing-security until deleted (see bug #464045), and in
stable until lenny is released, and then in oldstable for one further
year...
This is why I thought the fixed version information should have been
*copied* from cupsys to cups, rather than *moved*.

Or am I completely off-track?
