Bug in the bug tracking system
There currently 512 bugs in "unknown" section. I suspect that a number of
them is there because the bug-tracking system fails to match packages to
known maintainers when a digit is part of the package name. To illustrate,
here is the sort'ed and uniq'ed list of packages as shown in the last bug
report:
