No, it's a "too aggreesive cleanup" bug.  Chris deleted the jbigkit packages 
from sourceware, and I haven't had a chance to re-upload them yet.  since 
the packages aren't there, upset can't figure out what version numbers to 
use.

You're not ever supposed to have a setup.hint without any packages.
