Thanks for the bugreport, and sorry for the clumsy handling of your 
merge request: The packaging project had accidentally enabled support 
for merge requests (due to Salsa enabling those by default) despite my 
not using them (out of worry that valuable information then fails to get 
collected in the Debian bugtracker).

I am very happy that you persisted and filed a proper bugreport (I tried 
but failed at locating an email address for you at Salsa, to inform you 
of using the Debian bugtracker).

Looks sensible.  Thanks a lot, also for the added details of how you 
came to discover this.
