Wrong. You should communicate with the full information. There should be space for me to **guess** what is in your brain. This is general rule for bug report. Why hide? I can blindly follow your suggestion to fix the source, I can go directly to that text by "/DEBUILD_LINTIAN_OPTS" in vim. But there may be 2 locations ... Or some funny line folding may exist in the source missing another one .... Also I normally want to check the context by reading the generated html text. Searching over remote multi-page html is non-trivial. Pushing me to do such is not effective and prone for problem. I need to run grep locally. Giving me the chapter location reduces such ambiguity.
