I started to file the following after trying unsuccessfully to get reportbug (6.6.3) to install on openSUSE. I had no luck finding instructions on filing a bug against the installer or its version. Neither did searching for an existing bug get me anywhere. Any suggestions on whether or how to proceed with this? I don't often install Debian, maybe a half dozen times in the past decade, and can't recall ever having occasion to file a bug against it.
