Bug#647801: SOAP API get_bugs() doesn't show bugs affecting the package

Source: debbugs
Severity: normal

Hello,
it seems that get_bugs() doesn't show the bugs affecting the package we're
querying: i've taken 645738 as example, which is reported against libklibc-dev
and affects rootskel, then I used the SOAP API to query rootskel, but:

>>> import SOAPpy
>>> url = 'http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/soap.cgi'
>>> namespace = 'Debbugs/SOAP'
>>> server = SOAPpy.SOAPProxy(url, namespace)
>>> '645738' in server.get_bugs("package", "rootskel")
False
>>> '645738' in server.get_bugs("src", "rootskel")
False
>>> 

while it's correctly displayed on the webpage
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=rootskel;dist=unstable

Regards,
Sandro
