Package: reportbug
Version: 3.30
Severity: wishlist
I often end up reporting bugs that were already explained in
README.Debian. Arguably, this is my fault. It would be nice,
however, if reportbug showed the README.Debian file to me (and
possibly NEWS.Debian also) if they are present, before I get to
reporting the bug.
I wonder if there's too much noise in the typical README/NEWS.Debian
to make this a good policy (even as an option) - I'd rather more
packages make use of presubj files to include a mini-FAQ covering
frequently-reported bugs.
Then again, if the BTS gets the mooted 'faq' tag, reportbug could show
those bugs/non-bugs at the top of the BTS browser or as a separate set
of bugs a la Bug Buddy.
