It means someone changed the status without justification. This is a
dpkg bug but a rather minor one.

dpkg simplifies some versions like "0:1.0" into "1.0" or "1.0-" into
"1.0" but it should not do that to avoid the kind of problem described
here.

** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Committed => Confirmed

** Summary changed:

- package libqwt-dev - failed to upgrade
+ dpkg should not "simplify" version numbers in dependencies

** Changed in: qwt (Ubuntu)
       Status: Fix Committed => Confirmed

** No longer affects: qwt (Ubuntu)
