================
Often programs are distributed across several different packages, for
example an upstream package 'foo' may be packaged in Debian as foo, libfoo,
foo-common and foo-data. In such cases it can be useful to include related
package information in bugreports, to minimise the need for 'moreinfo' requests
to the submitter :) This is done by adding a "report-with" header to the
control file::
report-with: foo libfoo foo-common foo-data
Package information will be added to the bug report for each extra package
listed.
It unfortunately only adds direct dependencies for these packages, not their
recommendations nor suggestions.
