Would that be true also with single-debian-patch? Also, while I was aware of this workflow for the X team, it seems that there's at least one outlier: https://salsa.debian.org/xorg-team/app/xterm/-/tree/debian-unstable/debian/patches > Whether this outweighs the disadvantages of the 1.0 format is debatable, > but I think it would be best to start a discussion on the debian-x list > or the #debian-x IRC channel before filing individual bugs. Sure, I take this discussion as a preliminary discussion before a potential discussion, later, about a mass bug filing. It's not clear if we will get there. Lucas
