Indeed. But those are not simply "packages in Debian" - a newer version requires a rebuild, which was my next cases: > * Use Debian BTS for packages in Debian rebuild in Skolelinux, if the > Debian package maintainer welcomes such bug reports. > * Use Skolelinux BTS for packages in Debian but rebuild for > Skolelinux if the package maintainer is not explicitly interested in > them So I believe your story, Finn-Arne, is simply a supporting example of why the Debian BTS should be used only when the Debian package maintainer agrees with this :-) On Mon, 30 Jan 2006 14:39:14 +0100 Petter Reinholdtsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I believe the criteria should be if the bug is present in the debian > package or not, as it really is completely irrelevant if the > maintainer welcome bug reports or not.

My intention was to keep the complexity low, while still aim as many bugreports at Debian as all parties can agree on. A more complex situation would indeed include your point above, Petter, but also that of obnoxious Debian maintainers as Finn-Arne have experienced. There is currently a discussion and a poll within Debian related to this. I suggest we stick to my earlier BTS rules until Debian have found more consensus on the matter. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFD3iyrn7DbMsAkQLgRAkqgAJ9BBopBt2Qgugd5Go3JnNJzXsMSTACeLIwE eY8EeMQ1hAqn8TuFu9SbK9M= =5mgB -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
