Hi,

first: thanks for operating bugs.debian.org - I really love it! :-)

second: can we please have a pseudo package piuparts.debian.org, like there 
are other similar pseudo-packages already: bugs.d.o, snapshot.d.o, qa.d.o, 
etc...

Currently we abuse the piuparts package for "pseudo-tracking" bugs, as can be 
seen in:

#688250 [m|  |☣] [src:piuparts] [bug for tracking] "modifies conffiles" bugs 
for packages in squeeze that have been removed afterwards 
#690216 [m|  |☺☣] [src:piuparts] [bug for tracking] aspell dictionary hash 
handling upgrades that will be done in jessie 
#696081 [m|  |☣] [src:piuparts] [bug for tracking] "modifies conffiles" bugs 
for packages in lenny that have been removed afterwards

These bug clutter the view on real piuparts bugs, thus I would prefer to 
assign them somewhere else.

Also this pseudo package is useful to be able to track other problems with 
piuparts.debian.org, which we had in the past and for which we also had to 
abuse the bts and track those bugs as piuparts bugs.


cheers,
        Holger
