There is a third option that is being missed here: the tracker can be interacted with by email[1], and you can do a whole lot of things through that (including setting the keywords). I used the following to subscribe to all my packages: #!/usr/bin/env fish set name "Maytham Alsudany" sudo apt update set packages $(grep-dctrl -n -F Uploaders -w $name -s Package \ /var/lib/apt/lists/deb.debian.org_debian_dists_unstable_main_source_Sources) for package in $packages echo "subscribe $package" echo "keyword $package = bts" end | mail cont...@tracker.debian.org Alternatively, if you've already subscribed to some packages, and you want to change all their keywords so you only get BTS emails, then you can send "keyword = bts" to change your keyword settings for all your subscriptions. -- Maytham [1]: https://qa.pages.debian.net/distro-tracker/usage/mailbot.html
