Here's my opinion: Send users to us if they experience a packaging bug or to the (original) upstream developers if it is an upstream bug. For small package, you can forward all bug reporters to us. For big packages, there's the risk to collect too many bugs without having the manpower to process and forward them all. -- Benjamin Drung Debian & Ubuntu Developer
