severity 1098454 normal

Hi,

I don't believe RFP bugs *can*be "serious", according to the fine
manual, that is reserved for bugs that are:

> is a severe violation of Debian policy (roughly, it violates a "must"
> or "required" directive), or, in the package maintainer's or release
> manager's opinion, makes the package unsuitable for release.

`wnpp`, itself, is not a package that *can* have serious bugs, I feel
like.

In any case, if you believe this is a serious bug, I think it should be
addressed against the qutip package, like it originally was, but, like
the maintainer argued here, I don't think it's serious there either, at
most it would be `important`, defined as:

> a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without
> rendering it completely unusable to everyone.

I found this while triaging release critical bugs during the Montreal
BSP.
