The CRAN page for a package also includes the BugReports field
(besides the URL field), and I believe that is certainly a better link
for bug reporting purposes.
This plays well with ?bug.report in base R, e.g.,
bug.report(package="Rsamtools"), which opens a web page if there is a BugReports
field or generates an email template addressed by default to the Maintainer:
otherwise.

Subject: Re: [Bioc-devel] Bug tracker for Bioconductor?
To support the decentralized model, it would be nice to have a
standard way
of directing users to the right bug tracker. Perhaps this could be
specified as a URL in the DESCRIPTION and the Bioc package page could
link
to it.
Already done; see for example the ACME package landing page:
http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/release/bioc/html/ACME.html
The URL is a clickable link. This could be the link to the github issue
tracker. Note that you can have multiple URLs in the URL field, I believe comma
separated. See also
