Right now it's difficult/impossible to recreate a snapshot of Debian
as it was (updates included) when the bug was reported.

I think Debian needs a way to be able to pick a point in history and

obtain at least the versions + patches of all the source packagesthat

would have been installed / available to reproduce the Debian system
running on the users machine at the time they reported the bug.


Like http://snapshot.debian.org/ , for instance?
