Can't report bug on package you have replaced

[whitis]

Ubuntu-bug will not let you report a bug if you have upgraded a package using external sources.

Package zoom was so old the server rejected it. Downloaded the new .deb file from upstream source. Now I can't report a bug on zoom that the package is so far out of date.

Similarly, if a package is so broken you can't install it, it won't let you report a bug.

Just note that you can't collect the data and do your job.
