That's right.
But it's does not really renders the package unusable. People just
have to run pdbv as root one time.
1) The package fails to perform correctly on some conditions, or
in some systems, or fails to comply current policy documents. Most
bugs are in this category.
2) Important Bug. Has a major effect on the usability of a package,
without rendering it completely unusable to everyone.
3) Dangerous bug. Makes the package in question unusable by anyone or
mostly so, or causes data loss, or introduces a security hole allowing
access to the accounts of users who use the package.
4) Critical bug. Makes unrelated software on the system (or the whole
system) break, or causes serious data loss, or introduces a security
hole on systems where you install the package.
The severity appropriate is 1. This bug should be fixed soon, and
will, but it's does not at all introduce security holes or causes data loss.
