Whether a package has a bug may have little in particular to do with Debian; if the bug was reported in Debian and not Gentoo (or whatever), it may be that nobody noticed/reported it for Gentoo. The 1300 "release critical bugs" means bugs that need to be fixed for the most recent version of a package to be released with the next version of Debian, but by no means does that in general imply the bug needs to be fixed before the next version of Debian can be released-- maybe an old version of the package will be released, or maybe that version of Debian will not have that package. Also, if it helps, the number of "Release-critical bugs concerning the next [Debian] release (excluding ignored and not-in-testing)" is 550 of the 1300. Larry
