While you're at it, I think "There is ..., it's called reportbug." is
pretty ghastly. How about:
To assist users in reporting and checking bugs, there is a set of
programs in Debian provided by the 'reportbug' package. The
'reportbug' tool will guide you through the steps of the bug reporting
process and reduce the amount of work involved. The 'querybts' tool
provides a convenient text-based interface to the Debian BTS.
(Okay, that's introducing lots of new stuff rather than just fixing an
offending bit of grammar: sorry.)
