Hi Martin (and others),

Please file as a bugreport - it is much easier to track than a casual 
mailinglist conversation.

...and file each issue separately - it is easy to merge issues if they 
turn out to stem from same root cause, but (slightly) harder to split an 
issue into several parts later.


> PS: I CC'ing Peter in case this information is useful for Fedora.

The Debian issue tracker behaves much like an ad-hoc mailinglist: You 
can cc others, and others can later join the conversation and then 
automagically gets "suvscribed" to the issue.
