That transition completed successfully, and the bug was closed. Was
there really an issue here? If so, how do I reproduce it?

Is there a bug tracking that? I thought it was sufficiently supported,
these days. I can't see anything on
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=release.debian.org;dist=unstable#_0_16_4
and #786803 was closed.
