Clearly something is wrong. At the time that this bug was closed you
haven't even identified what the actual problem is or at the very
least pointed the user at the type of information required so that the
actual problem can be identified.

If you want to delegate the initial triaging of your bugs to
debian-user or some random forum, that's your business, but you still
need to inform the user that they should ask
debian-user@lists.debian.org for assistance because you don't want to
deal with what is likely a user configuration issue.

Even a simple template response pointing people at the right resources
would be useful.

attention to sightings of supernatural entities. The latest miracle
had raised the ante on the supernatural: the Virgin Mary had
manifested herself to two children, a dog, and a Public Telepresence
Point.
