People seem to think it's acceptable to file bugs about random packages
not in Ubuntu (including automatix, especially when their repositories
are down).

It seems that users think that launchpad is the place for any bug that
they find while using anything on ubuntu, including random crack from
anywhere that they feel like.

So, no, i don't think they're actually looking at what they're filing,
nor thinking about where they got it from.
