Well, I thought of this, yes. But there are times when a program uses more than one language. For example, Oregano (an electronics program that I help maintain) is coded in C, uses a lot of GTK, but also has some perl scripts... So, if a bug occured in a perl script, it would show up as a C+GTK bug, which it is not... In any case, it _would_ be nice to make use of the debtags, since in most cases the language tag would be appropiate, I just haven't figured out how to do both. -- Besos, Marga
