Package: dpkg-dev-el Version: 26.11-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Hello,
digging into the code I found that `debian-changelog-close-bug' offers
an open-bug list completion, which seems not to be documented at all
[1]. In my case, most of the time `debian-bug-open-alist' is empty,
because it's not auto-generated [2] and because to generate it you
need to access the "Bugs" menu, choose to generate the menu and then
finally choose to generate the list. Ehm, I've `(menu-bar-mode -1)'
in my .emacs [3].
The attached patch adds a new mode keybinding to generate
`debian-bug-open-alist':

Footnotes:
[1] except a small "hint" in the README.Debian
[2] which is perfectly fine and correct, as it requires a working
Internet connection
[3] I could agree it's my fault, thus the severity is wishlist
