Yep. However, this has to be used with care. If a package deserves a
bug report, then you'd better file a bug report, and using that
address is not the Right Way to do so. See the D-I i18n documentation
about the proper way to report bugs....or indeed the Debian BTS
documentation at http://bugs.debian.org
<package>@packages.debian.org is more a convenient way to talk to a
given package maintainer(s) when the topic is not exactly a bug....

Well, it is not always properly filled, indeed. In aptitude, it has
submit@bugs.debian.org which is not really useful as bug submission
needs a specially formatted mail to go to the right package maintainer.
