I'm quite disappointed that instead of trying to fix the bug you are just trying to discuss how to make user life more complicated. What is the difference between Debian and any commercial SW? Just that it becomes less user friendly with less support despite it is cost free. --Cheers, Abou Al Montacir On Wed, 2016-09-14 at 09:10 +0000, Holger Levsen wrote: On Tue, Sep 13, 2016 at 04:11:21PM -0700, Don Armstrong wrote:bugs.debian.org controls whether pseudopackage exist at all; reportbug is responsible for what reportbug outputs as possible pseudopackages.I'm well aware of that…That's true. There are some bugs which affect lots of packages, but don't really belong to a single one of them. general is as good a place as any to coordinate those bugs.agreed. we just need *a* place in the BTS for those…Maybe just changing this text: Please enter the name of the package in which you have found a problem, or type 'other' to report a more general problem. If you don't know what package the bug is in, please contact debian-user@lists.debian.org for assistance. To something like: Please enter the name of the package in which you have found a problem, If you don't know what package the bug is in, please contact debian-user@lists.debian.org for assistance. Type 'other' to report a problem in a pseudopackage. would help address this problem?sounds good/better to me! |
