I perfectly understand that we are lacking time to maintain this or that package, especially that on may loose too much time to follow mails on d-d. > > Then if the user reports a bug we need to understand it and try to fix > > it.

This new pseudo package "support" can substitute to "general" automatically by the tool after few messages are asked like: "I don't really know how to investigate this issue" "I'm not experienced user" ... The main goal of all this is to make Debian more user friendly. Cheers, Abou Al Montacir
