Hi, I've hit a bug¹ in a non-package part of Debian, identified that it is tied to variations not in package releases but web-facing parts of official Debian: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch/main/installer-armhf/$timestamp/images/netboot/SD-card-images/ I filed a bugreport against the pseudo-package seeming most appropriate, but then got no (maintainer) response for a week. That delay might be perfectly fine (I often have far worse reaction time myself), but made me wonder: Did I file it wrongly, so that the bug isn't "heard"? Which pseudo-package do ARM netboot image slices belong to? or more generally: Is there some way of verifying which pseudo-package(s) is(/are) appropriate for targeting a bugreport, when web address is known? For real packages where I have located a file involved, I can verify if a proper package is targeted by use of "dpkg -L ..." or "apt-file search ..." or similar tools. Do we have similar ways to check (preferrably without needing login to specific Debian hosts) which pseudo-package some official area of Debian web services belong to? E.g. a public list of which team has write access to which parts of our web-facing services? I am aware of https://www.debian.org/Bugs/pseudo-packages but that's comparable to grep'ing package descriptions to pinpoint where a bug belongs, nowhere as accurate a verification as "dpkg -L ..." or "apt-file search ...". - Jonas ¹ https://bugs.debian.org/803769 -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
