I wonder if we (Debian) should remove this from the bug reporting instructions or otherwise rephrase it. We're not the only team in Debian that just doesn't have the manpower to be the ones to pass all bugs along upstream. It's a frequent complaint of the KDE, GNOME, and X teams as well. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
