Dear Jonas,

Which severities are those: grave and critical?

Quoting from http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#severities :

  grave
    ... introduces a security hole allowing access to the accounts of
    users who use the package.
  ...
  important
    a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package,
    without rendering it completely unusable to everyone.

It seems to me that "grave" is the matching one.
This bug should not have been downgraded.

Apologies. I got carried away. Won't happen again.

Cheers, Paul
