Hi Don,

right after installing debbugs-local, I had to resort to using dpkg -L
on it to determine which files it installed, given man debbugs[tab]
wasn't finding anything. Any particular reason to have different names
for package and binary?

Not that it's important, just wondering whether that's on purpose. ;)

Mraw,
KiBi.

Yeah, it's on purpose. It's a local debbugs version, thus
local-debbugs; the package namespace, though, is debbugs, thus
debbugs-local.

However, given that at least four people have asked this very same
question, it seems clear that it's not obvious to anyone else, so I
probably need to drop in a debbugs-local symlink.
