You can find some hints about determining what package your bug might be about at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage. You might also ask for help in the #ubuntu-bugs irc channel on Freenode.

ahh ... https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pillow

i would reccomend an alias for pillow .. i thought python3-pil was
something totally different.. but rather, pillow is a fork of a dead (but
important) project.

if someone is searching for pillow and hasnt done there google fu, then it
can lead to innefficiancy, lots of web posts and generall unlucky
cluelessness,,

goodness to all mankind! remember :D

and please note, i am one of the growing crowd of python peeps that
exclusively uses python3.
