I'm tempted to let this one go: I'm not using bugs-everywhere (BE) at
all anymore and there are more interesting alternatives (like
git-bug[1] and many others.
BE is mostly abandoned at this point, without any upstream. The
homepage[2] is still up but the upstream git repo refered there is on
gitorious, which died as well recently. There's another repo on
GitLab[3] but that hasn't seen an update in over a year.
So I would suggest just removing this from Debian, unless someone
protests... In fact, I would orphan the package (if not remove it from
unstable) if I was the maintainer instead of just an uploader...

These packages have been removed from testing, and britney now ensures
that they won't migrate again without their build dependencies.
