May be I didn't understand the thread in all it's detail, but it seemed to me
that we were talking about reopening a bug, that is a manipulation of an
already known bug (closed); so I suggested (really enforced what someone did
before me) to talk/wite to developper before reopen the bug. As you'll see
checking the url I reported, sending a bug to <bugnumber>@bugs.debian.org
automatically send a mesage to the developer responsible for the bug and
<bugnumber>-submitter@bugs.debian.org is an alias for the submitter of the
bug report.
BTW I expressed only my opinion, that I hope people respect reporting bug,
or trying to manipulate existing one related to my packages.
cheers,
