Reportbug is no longer part of the default install (this changed with 6.10). It is not removed from existing systems, because the user could very well be using it, or have installed it explicitly. It is still in main because a supported package indirectly depends on it (dpkg-dev-el). We'll have to evaluate whether this package is worth any confusion resulting from reportbug being in main. -- - mdz -- Ubuntu bug reporting tools need to point to Ubuntu bug systems https://launchpad.net/bugs/7839 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
