I do personally prefer to forward bug reports by > hand (some hoursdelay can't be that bad). Yes! But you forget one thing, by definition, my packages do not have missing build-depends ;-) I guess I am (or was) no2 or 3 reporter of this type of bugs. Procmail sounds good, but I use procmail only on my machine, and bug reports end on a debian machine and I do not intend to change that (yet). I want this feature only for one author of one package. He said he wanted to receive the original bug reports. Maybe I can set something in the control file, or create an email alias like for libc6?
Just tell me it is not possible and I am fine with that. My opinion is, if he wants to receive the original bug reports, he should maintain the package himself. Christian
