You mean whether an ITP/RFP bug was filed before? $ wnpp-check orca (RFP - #959381) http://bugs.debian.org/959381 plotly-orca No idea whether you mean this one > reportbug, most fortunately > provides a quite sensible template, but I guess when dealing > with multiple missing packages pulled by an interesting one, > this comes in handy. I admit itp_from_debian_dir[1] is a bit hidden (seems it also should call wnpp-check before doing its work) but its very handy. > Speaking of tasks, I believe I might have missed that aspect > until then.

In the case of poa it is in med-bio and you can find it in the according blends task[2]. If you want to add some package to the covid-19 task just add it here[3]. The syntax is similar do debian/control files and explained in the Blends documentation[4]. Hope this helps Andreas.
