Well, it's written in the error message: either the pkg doesn't exit or the *apt cache* doesn't know it, and if you want to report a bug against a source package you'd have to have the corresponding deb-src like in the sources.list for the apt cache to know it. Even if it's pretty clear to me, I'll add a mention of it in the manpage. > What does appear to work is this: > > reportbug src:<package-name> that's a workaround, given it will generate several warning menus for non-existing pkg and end up with a "Package: src:<package-name>" in the report.
