There is no information missing here. Whether the bug is still present can trivially be checked by everybody, there is no need to ask the original reporter for it. All it takes is to execute the two lines
$ touch "long file name.tex"
$ latexmk "long file name.tex"
and one can immediately see that the bug is still present. At least in hardy.
I am sorry if I am a bit grunty, but I am really getting disappointed about this. It seems more and more common that the only answer that bug reporters get as a response to their efforts is a periodic "please confirm that the bug still exists". If at least someone would do something about the bug after such a question I would not complain, but usually there is nothing happening at all. This is just a waste of the bug reporter's time, especially if the bug can be extremely trivially reproduced with a minimum of effort.
