This is a bit of a problem with the way that the bug tracker
works. Basically because there are lot of packages, with common
bugs, they often end up beign duplicated. Currently
we try and reassign them to the source package, as that
at least makes it easier for the kernel team to find them.
Probably the best solution is to have the BTS do this automatically.
I've CCed Colin Watson, who once spoke to me about this idea offline,
to see if he is still interested in implemnting these kind of iedas.
