If you are talking of a normal small package. Not of 2.6G of packages
where even the source packages are *generated*, and unfuzzying is a

Fuzz indicates that the source file has changed since the patch has been

Dear BTS masters,
it seems that recently some problems have been introduced in the BTS.
The following email exchange explains the two independent problems
(one being bug reports sent to the wrong adress, one being that the
