The way apt-listbugs handles the situation is at least a minor bug.
When an upgrade for dozens or hundreds of packages aborts with
W: invalid date
the natural response is
Retry downloading bug information?[Y/n]?N
Notice that the error doesn't mention texlive-latex-base (or
apt-listbugs!) - it only tells me, uselessly, that an invalid date
is involved. If it returned something like
Format error in texlive-latex-base bug 356853
the natural response would be to put that one package on hold and
deal with all the others first.
