The bug system works by email, so I am forwarding this for filing there.
I'll also mark the bug fixed in a certain version because it looks like
the ploteig script disappeared at that point.

Even on Ubuntu, the reportbug package is supposed to work, sorry to hear
if does not. The command to use would be "reportbug -B debian eigensoft".
