The location of the upstream bug tracker is documented in the upstream
metadata file included in the proj source package:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-grass/proj.git/tree/debian/upstream/metadata

Filing bugreports in the Debian Bug Tracking System for the upstream
parts of proj package is fine, the maintainer can forward those reports
upstream if they provide sufficient information for the upstream
developers to act upon.

You can assist the Debian maintainers by cutting out the middleman, and
file the bugreport in the upstream bug tracker without going through the
Debian BTS first. The fix will find its way into the Debian package via
upstream release it's included in.

Kind Regards,

Bas
