Hello, we are seeing an increasing number of users in #debian-next asking about FTBFS bugs that are reported by apt-listbugs during upgrades. Most of those users are not familiar with acronyms such as FTBFS or if these bugs apply to their setup. The underlying problem seems to be that a subset of FTBFS bugs are reported against binary and not source packages, which is something we might want to address. I think it is better to make sure that FTBFS bugs are reported against source packages rather than "fixing" apt-listbugs, but I am not entirely sure what the best approach is. It is certainly important to spread the word, but implementing such consistency checks in reportbug/mass-bugs/... might make sense. -- Wolodja <babilen@gmail.com> 4096R/CAF14EFC 081C B7CD FF04 2BA9 94EA 36B2 8B7F 7D30 CAF1 4EFC
