No. [It's not clear to the BTS whether a blocked bug should be closed when the blocking bug is closed, or it means that the blocked bug can now be worked on; if this is a feature that would be useful, please file a wishlist bug against debbugs with suggestions on how this would work.] > Or should I subscribe to bug 987654 to get the notification? Since you've submitted #987654, you'll know about its closure; whether you subscribe to it or not is up to you.
