(please cc me in replies)

Hello,

I'm wondering what to do when an update to a Debian bug report is not
showing up on bugs.debian.org and not getting relayed to the bug
subscribers. How do I file a bug report about BTS?

The bug in question is #399480 and I updated the patches to the newer
version links2, but the emails are not showing up on
http://bugs.debian.org/399480 and I'm not receiving any email
infrastructure related errors either.

The package maintainer was cc'd on the emails and he has received my
mails. The original message id is <20080124141300.GD5804@fitfioullt278> and I
resent a few days later with <20080128131522.GE4546@fitfioullt278>.

I'm buffled. Any ideas on what to do next?

-Mikko

With reportbug, as you would do for any other package; the name of the
BTS pseudo package is `bugs.debian.org'.

Apart from filing a bug against bugs.debian.org: no. It's unclear where
in the SMTP chain your mails were lost.

Ah, reportbug -> other -> 3 bugs.debian.org. I couldn't find this info
with web searches or from bugs.debian.org, thanks.

Indeed, but I've tried sending from both my work and home email systems.
Both failed without errors and local exim4 and msmtp logs show
that the mails passed ok to the first smtp server.
