Will do, but I'll wait a while so someone else has a chance to respond to

Can someone please help me understand what this means?

Is it something about the priority/severity of the bug that makes the fixed
package not show up as an update?

I mean it seems pretty clear to me, that
* the package is broken as shipped with the distribution
* the fixed package should show up as a regular update

so why doesn't it?
