The version is relevant - you can't just say "all".

However, I think it likely is a duplicate of #823827, which was fixed in 1:7.2p2-6 (before stretch). This is why it's relevant which version you encountered this bug in and whether you have any local customisations, because if it's a more recent version than that then we need to investigate further.
