Package: popularity-contest
Version: 1.76
Severity: wishlist

While popcon seems a good idea - it seems that data from repository downloads 
would do much the same job. 
What would be even more important is gathering statistics on non Debian and 
even non Deb package software installed.

I would imagine a setting to identify locations of non Debian executables so 
such data could be collected.

There is a pseudo-package bug - wnpp - that almost no one uses, but I would 
think that statistics on what 
is missing from Debian would be quite important.
