Yes, I have sent a bug report, but it never appeared on the list.

No, it's appropriate to report bugs in a Debian package to the Debian
BTS, whether or not the bug occurs in the upstream code.

While I agree that it can be good if the user takes on the job of
interacting with upstream, a large part of the role of a Debian
package maintainer is to field bug reports from users of the package
and interact with upstream on the user's behalf.
