No, you send mail, as per http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting; you can use the 'reportbug' program to help you. The package name for this is "installation-reports". Bug reports against that package go to the debian-boot mailing list, so you might want to check the archives of that list to see if anyone else has been talking about the problem. (Personally, I think mail-based bug reporting is a feature from lots of points of view, although other people's mileage seems to vary ... at any rate it's not significantly harder than sending a mail to this list once you know that you need to put a magic line "Package: installation-reports" at the very top of your message body.)
