Something I think should be documented somewhere, are tracked in some other distros package trackers, easier to add on adoption, and useful when you want to submit bug reports upstream. Defining then as shell vars mean you can use them for searching or in commands. I recently audited my packages and there are still a dozen or so lacking that information that I will work on adding. -- Take care.
