[darcs-users] Forwarding bugs from Debian BTS

I maintain the Debian package of Darcs, and just now I've been cleaning
up the (woefully stale) bug page (http://bugs.debian.org/src:darcs).

I noticed the Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/454193 has been
reproduced verbatim as http://bugs.darcs.net/issue567 (by droundy, if I
understand roundup's output).

If you do this, you should also tag it as such on the Debian BTS.  If
you are on Debian and have the devscripts package installed, this is
simply

    bts forwarded N http://bugs.darcs.net/issueM

where N is the Debian bug number and M is the roundup issue number.

Alternatively, you can send an email to control at bugs.debian.org and
N at bugs.debian.org, with the message body starting with

    forwarded N http://bugs.darcs.net/issueM
    thank you

Hopefully this won't be an issue in future as I'll take care of
forwarding any upstream-related Debian BTS bugs, since this is part of
my job as the Debian maintainer.
