Each distro has its own way of reporting bugs. Here's an unofficial description of the debian process (untested by me -- I don't use debian):
<https://itsfoss.com/bug-report-debian/>
Here's official documentation:
Hmmmmmmm - - - interesting - - - - in this area Debian is sounding a lot like M$ - - - - "please setup this system so that we can monitor your system or . . . ." and there seems to be no other way to report bugs . As I don't do that for anyone - - - - - sounds like I am going to not be on debian for much longer. (I'm easy - - - - you work with me - - - or I'm history.)
I also imagine you are paying the debian volunteers for their time to help you with a bug you are hitting. You are joining a community, and it would be great to respect the rules and processes that community follows. Seriously, this is a volunteer effort people are involved in. FWIW, reportbug is *NOT* monitoring your system. It is just populating your bug report with almost everything the maintainer would ask you up first. Such as, are you on the latest package? Can you test with the latest package? Has your bug already been reported? If so, can we add to that report? Are you running the originally shipped package or doing something custom? Dhaval
