As a member of Ubuntu's MOTU Science team, I try to triage bugs in the science-related package. However, it is non-trivial to do so, as the only way of getting bugs for packages the team is a bug contact for is +packagebugs, and that is almost entirely useless with a large number of packages. There is no way to sort by any of the bug numbers, and no way to filter anything. If I want to see packages with bugs, I have to search manually through the list looking for a line which isn't entirely zeros. It's incredibly inefficient.
For an example, see https://launchpad.net/people/motuscience/+packagebugs, and try to do something useful with that page. It's not easy. |
