If you look at https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/1053310 there is both textual info ("Found in version exim4/4.94.2-7 Fixed in version exim4/4.97~RC2-2") and a nice graph in red and green to display this and the overview pages can also show bugs applying to specific distributions. (Menu items at the bottom of the page.) e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=stable;package=exim4-base does not show this bug under "Resolved bugs".
Alright, thank you. Every time I see those "found in"/"fixed in" bugreport pages I'm at a loss to be 100% clear in what precise state those bugsreport are. Oh well. Many, many thanks for the explanations!
