I do only plan to mention the *number* of issues, just like in the demo of my original email. > Still, a answer you did receive and on which I did not get how you > intend to proceed, is that serious/certain lintian errors should be > reported as RC bugs and as such, will be "inherited" by the > ddpo-by-mail message. What is your take on that? Well, if at some point lintian serious/certain issues are reported then there won't be much I could do to avoid including them in the lintian-reported issues *count*. > Given that you, presumably, have the code already, would you be willing to > be the bug submitter? Sure, why not. > Do we want a process for that or automatic bug submission > (on the basis of the certainty being "certain")? I'm not quite sure that's a good idea, yet. I would only be in favour of automatic bug reporting after reaching a concensus on -devel.
