Bug#754413: tracker.debian.org needs to have nuanced subscription methods just like the PTS has for any package.



Package: tracker.debian.org
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
As of right now, once you are logged in to the account and you like a
package, you can subscribe to it. But this subscription can have a
substantial cost as unlike the PTS, it doesn't give which parts of the
package you would like to subscribe to.

An example of the kinds of subscription a typical package gets is
shared below :-

https://packages.qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/pts.cgi

Source package:
Your email address:

List of accepted keywords:
bts: All bug reports and associated discussions.
bts-control: Notifications about status changes of bug reports.
cvs: Commit notices of the VCS repository associated to the package
(it's not limited to cvs, it might be anything).
upload-source: Notifications of new sourceful uploads.
upload-binary: Notifications of binary-only uploads (uploads of buildd mainly).
summary: Regular summary mails about the status of the package.
Currently, these report about the transition into testing, available
new upstream versions as well as informations about package removal or
orphaning.
contact: Mails from people contacting the maintainer via
package@packages.debian.org.
default: Mails manually sent to the PTS address.
buildd: Notifications of build failures from build daemons.
derivatives: Information about changes made to this package by
derivatives (e.g. Ubuntu).
derivatives-bugs: Bug traffic about this package in derivative
distributions (e.g. Ubuntu).
katie-other: Other mails sent by dak (the software running the archive).
ddtp: Translations of the package's description created by DDTP contributors.

I usually go for summaries but that's a beside point.

Looking forward for a fix.
