I'm running piuparts, my package installation, upgrading, and removal tester, against etch. It takes a while, and produces a fairly large number of error logs that need to be investigated manually. This sometimes reveals a bug in piuparts, and sometimes in the package, or a depency of the package.
When there are problems in packages, I would like to file bugs. This is potentially a large number of bugs, up to hundreds. I want to file them one by one, not all at once, since it will take weeks or months to go through the entire archive. A few bugs a day, in other words, not hundreds all at once. I will verify the existence of every bug manually, and will attempt to use the best possible taste in deciding whether something is a bug in the package or not. For this first run, I will concentrate on the clear cases: if a package leaves /usr/bin/foo on the filesystem after purging, it is pretty clearly a bug. Is this acceptable to everyone?
