Dear Maintainer,

currently there is no possibility to be notified when a bug is
usertagged for a certain user.

From what I've seen it's only possible to query UDD directly or
eventually to use the SOAP interface.

Thus I am hereby requesting that when a bug is usertagged, the user can
receive a notification of some sort, just like the package maintainer
does when a bug report is submitted.

Best regards,
Ulrike

I'll add just a little bit of background, in the hope it helps someone
look into it earlier: we, the Debian AppArmor team, plan to
extensively use usertags so that e.g. package maintainers can put
AppArmor-related issues on our radar, when they ship AppArmor
confinement profiles in "their own" packages and lack the expertise to
deal with all the consequences thereof.

Cheers,

Yeah, something along these lines would be useful.

In the meantime, you can use the SOAP interface, UDD, or rsync to see
when the set of tagged bugs changes... but that's not quite as useful as
it could be.

Hi,

thanks for your answer.

In the meantime I wrote a little script which we run on Alioth:
