We'll certainly see reports on the BTS and act. So thanks for yours.

Until very recently, pgApt didn't provide 2.1.8+dfsg-5 and the only time
that version has been build for pgApt/sid, it got these dependencies:

So I'm not quite clear where you got that package from. (Nor which
version you're talking about. The header says dfsg-4, your 'varsion'
statement says dfsg-5. AFAICT pgApt didn't ever ship a dfsg-4.)

I - among other Debian & pgApt contributors - prefer a real bug
reporting system. But I certainly understand that Bas wants to keep it
clean from "third-party" repositories. Then again, I'd appreciate if we
could keep using a common bug tracker for a common packaging base.
