It was really my mistake in not uploading it.

In that bug report you listed a few problems.. I need packages that generate the report and the actual report in question. There are many and I don't know all of them by heart the way the original authors do. For the packages, either the names of the package so I can get it from the archive or the actual deb if it's not in the archive yet. That'd be the best help.. basicly narrowing down the hunt for me. -- Please cc all mailing list replies to me, also. ========================================================================= * http://benham.net/index.html <gecko@benham.net> <>< * * -------------------- * -----------------------------------------------* * Debian Developer, Debian Project Secretary, Debian Webmaster * * <gecko@debian.org> <secretary@debian.org> <lintian-maint@debian.org> * * <webmaster@debian.org> <gecko@fortunet.com> <webmaster@spi-inc.org> * =========================================================================
