While this fixes the particular issue with xorg-server there are many
other source packages in Launchpad all of which would need to have a
different binary package name for the guided bug filing instructions to
work with 'ubuntu-bug'. I don't think this scales well at all and that
apport should be

now, so that it still works under Hardy (the Jaunty version doesn't need
the -p any more).

you are interested in updating the package bug guidelines for a specific
package I'm probably the best person to talk to.

OK, so how is one supposed to communicate with them? What should the bug
be against?

I think the right way for this to be handled is to allow apport to allow
filling bugs about source packages rather than updating the package bug
guidelines for a source package to recommend using a binary package name
(produced by the source package) for the package argument.
