Subject: option needed for bug reporting

Date: Fri, 16 Jan 1998 14:00:01 +0100 (CET)

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.19
Severity: wishlist

An option like --bug-report-headers would do something like:

$ dpkg --bug-report-headers /usr/bin/man
Package: man-db
Version: 2.3.10-57

Hi,

Wouldn't this be better left to the various bug reporting tools in
Debian? In particular, you can already type 'reportbug --filename
/usr/bin/man', which seems to meet and exceed your request.

I think this bug can be closed.
