Hi,

just an idea that occured to me right now when filing a bug against a
package where I already know that it’s an upstream bug, but I don’t want
to spend time finding out
 * where the upstream bugtracker is
 and
 * how to properly list all upstream bugs.

Therefore, I’d find it handy to have, on the header of the package’s bug
page a link "Search upstream bugtracker" that directly sends me to the
upstream bugtracker, ideally to a search request for all bugs affecting
this particular program/component.


Implementation-wise, this is probably best implemented via a new
control header, similar to Homepage, containing the URL. But of course
I’m open for other ideas.

Greetings,
Joachim
