Whatever package the bug actually exists in,[1] the underlying point is the same. The bug would be marked as affecting a version branch which wasn't distributed by Debian, and it can be easily ignored by the maintainer of either package. With the addition of a tag to even further separate out these bugs, it can be further ignored. If the default case ends up being that people don't want to receive these bug messages, then we can even filter them out by default at the BTS level. Doesn't really matter to me. Don Armstrong 1: It's certainly a bug in the backported package using debhelper improperly; it may also be an additional wishlist bug in debhelper. -- Grimble left his mother in the food store and went to the launderette and watched the clothes go round.
