--- Begin Message ---Package: reportbug Version: 6.4.4 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, *** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? heavy application for a simple bug report * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? it needs a lot of packages and fload of non necessary stuffs the box * What was the outcome of this action? Reading the book of C from Kevin and coding a lightweight C based reportbug it is just based on simple networking * What outcome did you expect instead? this post reportbug will be not considered as usually by the review. No one is really interested in coding versatile light-weight applications. apt-get is awesome and shall remain an elite software/app to take example on.

--- Begin Message ---I don't exactly think you know what's about to report a bug in a huge association of people like Debian is, and you didn't even take the time to understand our procedures (see the 'it depends' reply) nor to write a proof-of-concept of a reportbug in C (as you suggested). Nothing else to discuss about, closing.
