Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

See screenshot attached.

I am subscribed to the "LUG Radio" podcast. When I look at the episode description to see what the episode will be about, it looks horrible, very difficult to read. It seems that the description has HTML (or something like that) tags in it, which are not rendered, but rather treated as plain text.

Is this fix likely to be backported? Or has the Final Freeze put paid to that?
