Hi,
Currently, it sounds unrealistic to move the apt-listbugs
infrastructure back to Debian.org infrastructure. Which of the Debian
servers have almost-unlimited bandwidth for serving ? I'm seeking
information from those who are knowledgeable about Debian hosts.

Packages are no longer debian-native, also several issues have been fixed.
Also, I've created gcc-doc-defaults package (Section: contrib/doc) that
builds gcc-doc, cpp-doc, gfortran-doc and treelang-doc packages with

I would consider this a bug, when a package ships things which it
expects to magically disappear and where it thus cares

Yes, mounting tmpfs on /var/run/ and /var/lock/ is supposed to work,
and packages not handling it need to be fixed. And as you can see in
