bugs.debian.org controls whether pseudopackage exist at all; reportbug is responsible for what reportbug outputs as possible pseudopackages. > > Does anyone have a strong objection to this? > > I think I have a strong opinion on it, but not a strong objection ;p > > also as said already: src:general has some useful bugs, which we cant really > sensibly reassign. That's true. There are some bugs which affect lots of packages, but don't really belong to a single one of them. general is as good a place as any to coordinate those bugs. Maybe just changing this text: Please enter the name of the package in which you have found a problem, or type 'other' to report a more general problem. If you don't know what package the bug is in, please contact debian-u...@lists.debian.org for assistance. To something like: Please enter the name of the package in which you have found a problem, If you don't know what package the bug is in, please contact debian-u...@lists.debian.org for assistance. Type 'other' to report a problem in a pseudopackage. would help address this problem? -- Don Armstrong https://www.donarmstrong.com They say when you embark on a journey of revenge dig two graves.
