You're welcome but I just noticed that rc-alert(1) mentions popbugs(1)
in the SEE ALSO section. I should have had a look there. It's in the
debian-goodies package which says in its description:
popbugs - Display a customized release-critical bug list based on
packages you use (using popularity-contest data)
So, now I'll have a look at it and come back to what I did in this patch
later...
