Public bug reported:

Please change this to a feature request.  Line 705 is unhelpful about
how to report problems, I suggest it should aim the user at ubuntu-
bug(1).  This occurs at other places as well, but I've mainly
experienced line 705.

Listadmin probably inherited this from upstream, or perhaps changed from use of 
$maintainer variable.  When it errors at line 705, the message is
    Can not find version information, please mail maintainer.
Without using the $maintainer variable.
As according to the $maintainer variable, that would be 
kjetilho+listadmin\@ifi.uio.no
but according to synaptic, it's Ubuntu Developers 
<ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com>

Mail to ubuntu-devel-discuss gets held for moderators, and anyway seems
obtuse.  Ubunut-bug seems a better choice, as long as ubuntu developers
want to be the first in line.
