I periodically (semi-monthly) generate a small collection of automatically generated bug reports detailing packages with new upstream versions available. I generate these by looking at what is available on sunsite. This is an example of an automated bug reporting process which does not fit in lintian. Thus, I don't favor #3. -- see shy jo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
