Bug status after a package downgrade

Hi all,

so, being a freshly approved member of the team, here's my first question :-)

It's regarding bugs for the gthumb package in Lucid (probably applies
to other packages as well). During alpha and beta, the version of
gthumb was 2.11.2 but it was decided that it is not stable enough and
to revert back to the version in karmic (2.10.11). So now the version
is "2.11.2.1.is.2.10.11". There are a couple of bug reports against
2.11.2 which do not apply to 2.10 (many of them are marked as
regressions). What would be the correct bug status if the problem does
not occur with the currently shipped version? Simply "invalid", or
"fix released"? From a user perspective, the latest package update
(i.e. downgrade) fixed the bug, but "invalid" seems more natural to
me.

Thanks, best
  Marcel
