I think in general it should be decided on a case by case basis. if it was removed yesterday and reintroduced with almost same version today, then probably yes. If it was a 0.0.git-2005-01-20 removed in 2010 and version 2.0 reintroduced today, probably not. But I guess it also depends on if it is one bug that needs work, or a "Thanks for your contribution to Debian by maintainig this package. Now also walk thru these 1000 old crap that probably is irellevant today"-experience /Sune
