You obviously did not read the paragraph above.

LEAVE THE BUG OPEN UNTIL IT'S FIXED. This signals "we know there's a 
fault". Closing a bug implies that it's fixed, which in this case it is 
not.

"Debian bug reports should be closed when the problem is fixed. Problems 
in packages can only be considered fixed once a package that includes 
the bug fix enters the Debian archive."

By all means tag it "pending" or "confirmed", but don't close it.
