There doesn't necessarily need to be a bug in the BTS for each change. The reason I mentioned it is that having them does make it easier to track the status of a particular issue being addressed in any given suite - checking BTS metadata is generally quicker and easier than unpacking the source packages and trying to locate the relevant fixes. (That's also why I mentioned the particular changes that I did, as my initial cursory review involved pulling the Closes: out of your mail and looking at the metadata.) Regards, Adam
