Bug Description
A typical use case for me is that I build a package to test a bug fix. I'll then upload this package to my PPA and comment on the bug to ask people who are having the issue if the package fixes the problem. Currently, the only URL that I have to give them is for the full PPA. While this works for most folks, it doesn't tell them exactly what they should be grabbing. It would be nice to have a page that was the specific package for including the bug reports.
I tried control clicking on the package and got this URL:
https:/
Which is roughly what I'd like, but this seems to lack formatting and I'm guessing it's an internal URL of some type.

This is an interesting use case to address, and fits in to the "I just want a deb" use case.
Celso, what are your thoughts?
