It would be nice, but it would also be an enormous amount of work.
First we'd need to devise a way to represent that information, and then
we'd need to add it to each of our 10K+ packages. It would also be an
additional job to do when adding new packages. I'm not sure it's worth
all that work. We already record the home page, and from there it's
usually not much work to find how to report bugs. In cases where it
_is_ difficult to find out how to report bugs, that's arguably a problem
that should be fixed upstream.
What do you think?
Regards,
Mark
