Bug Description

At the time of writing, <https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/breezy/+source/warzone2100> says "There is no current release of this source package in The Breezy Badger." But then it goes on to list a link between that non-existent package and an upstream project series!

Non-existent packages shouldn't have upstream links (especially non-existent packages in already-released distribution series).

Till this bug is solved correctly, can someone please remove the invalid Breezy link from https://launchpad.net/warzone2100/ ?

It seems I am unable to remove the link mentioned at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/breezy/+source/warzone2100 myself, i.e. via https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/breezy/+source/warzone2100/+edit-packaging or similar. I guess someone with database access is needed...

Where do I need to send this so that finally something happens?
If it is easier for you, you could also purge all package links of warzone2100 from the database. I can easily recreate them, I think.
