Package: reportbug Version: 11.6.0 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: Vagrant Cascadian <vagrant@debian.org> Thanks for reportbug, it is a great social networking tool! I was wondering if reportbug could be a little more verbose when reporting bugs against ftp.debian.org ... $ reportbug ftp.debian.org ... What sort of request is this? (If none of these things mean anything to you, or you are trying to report a bug in an existing package, please press Enter to exit reportbug.) 1 ANAIS Package removal - Architecture Not Allowed In Source. 2 ICE Package removal - Internal Compiler Error. 3 NBS Package removal - Not Built [by] Source. 4 NPOASR Package removal - Never Part Of A Stable Release. 5 NVIU Package removal - Newer Version In Unstable. 6 ROM Package removal - Request Of Maintainer. 7 ROP Package removal - Request of Porter. 8 RoQA Package removal - Requested by the QA team. 9 other Not a package removal request, report other problems. 10 override Change override request. It walked me through a few steps, and I can guess a bit at what a lot of these mean, but it was not obvious to me weather I should select NBS, ANAIS or NVIU to remove some packages ... I had a package "u-boot" that was no longer provided on some architectures (armhf and mips) ... but should it be removed from testing, so that it can migrate to testing? Should it be removed from unstable, because the source in testing currently builds this package? If I pick the wrong one, will it end up removing the source package too? Thankfully, I do not make these sorts of ftp.debian.org requests very often... so it would be nice if reportbug nudged me a little more in the right direction, either by being a little more verbose here, or providing a link to more detailed information, asking a few more leading questions, etc. live well, vagrant -- System Information: Debian Release: bookworm/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental'), (1, 'unstable') Architecture: arm64 (aarch64) Foreign Architectures: armhf Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-0-arm64 (SMP w/6 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_CRAP Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages reportbug depends on: ii apt 2.5.4 ii python3 3.10.6-3+b1 ii python3-reportbug 11.6.0 ii sensible-utils 0.0.17 reportbug recommends no packages.
