Bug#305753: general: 38 packages still use 'Origin: debian'
S What information do you have that tells you that the Origin field S is obsolete? No. I'm saying I feel/guess/believe Origin: debian is obsolete, not that Origin: is obsolete. I'm sure Origin: still has good uses. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So to conclude, there's no reason for that mass bug filing apart from your feeling that it looks funny. Since it poses no real problem at all, I don't even see a lintian-test being warranted for this. This should indeed be closed unless you can come up with some real reason why this should be changed.

No, it's just a minor bug. So it should be filed as a minor bug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Agney mass bug filling is the worst way to do this. try to send a wishlist for Agney lintian and linda. So on the next time that these packages use them the Agney mantainers will be alerted about this. Naw, on 220098: 39 packages unnecessarily still use Bugs: debbugs://bugs.debian.org I was told to do it, and it worked out OK. I would also wishlist it to lintian and linda.
