Maybe there's a bug already that I didn't find. The canonical starting point is https://bugs.debian.org Notably for this situation, near the bottom of that page is a link to a list of pseudo-packages, which in turn includes "cdimage.debian.org — CD Image issues" which looks right for this. So you would file a bug with a Package: cdimage.debian.org The corresponding list of currently outstanding bugs is viewable through https://bugs.debian.org/cdimage.debian.org Also, while obviously it's far, far better to take care to file a bug against the correct package, I would go out on a limb here and say that it's not a disaster if, _despite your best efforts_, it ends up being filed against the wrong package or pseudo-package. Bugs _can_ be reassigned to different packages if they are filed against the wrong package by mistake. The above is NOT meant to imply endorsement of sloppy bug filing; _do_ your best to find the correct package to report the bug against, but _don't_ lose sleep over a slim chance that you might end up reporting it against the wrong package. Someone will almost certainly fix it if you get it wrong; it might just take longer to get the bug fixed, especially for a low-priority bug like I would at first glance consider the one you're talking about in this thread. -- Michael Kjörling https://michael.kjorling.se “Remember when, on the Internet, nobody cared that you were a dog?”
