Hey all,


My name is Faith Uniter, a new Debian contributor. I recently started learning 
how to report bugs using my terminal. I’m running into some uncertainty that 
I’d appreciate guidance on.

In my case,

at https://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/  but I’m not entirely sure how to 
determine whether what I’m observing should be reported against a specific 
package or treated as a more general issue.

Could someone please advise on:

How to reliably identify whether an issue should be reported against a specific 
package versus a general bug?


How a contributor can get a reported bug assigned to themselves for follow-up 
and fixing?



Any pointers to documentation, best practices, or examples would be very 
helpful.

Thank you for your time and for maintaining such a welcoming community.


Best regards,

Faith Uniter N.
