The severity is my fault. Most of the bugs I report are RC and my fingers were automatically typing the number for "serious" in reportbug, and I didn't notice. > Regards, > Andreas Henriksson Thanks for noticing Adrian

Could you please provide some additional information here that I'm obviously failing to understand. The Homepage field is an optional field: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#binary-package-control-files-debian-control I personally often leave it out even when a homepage exists but contains very little useful information (probably all already available in the package itself). If this is even a bug then it would be at most Severity: wishlist as I see it. What am I missing here that makes Homepage so important for this package to warrant a release-critical severity?
