The idea of having tags for statistical purposes has already been brought up in #612610. I believe it is just stuck on someone writing a patch for that kind of tags. Once that is made, it should be trivial to implement such a tag (or series of tags). Personally, I would probably only make one tag and make the type an "extra" information. ~Niels -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
