When a key utility such as "reportbug" is uploaded to unstable
*untested*, this is not very motivating for others, either!
I wanted to file a bug, and it was "Duh! The maintainer didn't even try
to run reportbug himself *again*? Why do I care about any package, if
some maintainers don't even test their own before uploading?"

It seems to me that could have been handled more diplomatically than a
public email to the BTS.  Was it a mistake to upload without testing?
Yes.  I hope to be able to reorganize the source package so I can have
pychecker run as part of debian/rules to catch these things in the
future.


Chris
