Thorsten Alteholz dixit:

Not Ian, but the *extremely* obvious and expected place would be
eMail to the maintainer. (Actually, probably: an eMail to everyone
who would have gotten an eMail if a bug against the package itself
had been reported.)

All those ways you noticed, save d-bugs-dist (which is high-volume
and generic and therefore not a good way) are polling, not really
suitable for notification.

I’ll argue for two things here:

• for a removal, if the requester is not the maintainer, check
  back with the maintainer. Just always do that.

• perhaps a chance to extend debbugs to copy ftp.d.o bugs that
  affect a package, no matter what, to the bugreport recipients
  that that package would have gotten.
