This bug is from a very long time ago, during the relatively short period when Ubuntu used Bugzilla for main and restricted but Launchpad for universe and multiverse. That has not been the case for a long time, fixing this bug.
There are various efforts to connect Bugzilla and Launchpad, such as those described in gmb's comment in http://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/301106/af2973525c0db774/ - however those are very different from the original topic of this bug and concerns about the technical aspects of those should be raised with the Launchpad team.
