d) use host part from rpm-config, and rest from package metadata.
and then one would be able to change report database
by modifying only one package.
Something like:
rpm-config %{bugreporthost} = http://bugzilla.redhat.com/
package %{name} = bacula
--> %{bugreporthost}/%{name}
--> http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bacula
Then downstream distros and IT-organizations could try to catch
all reports to their own bug reporting systems before disturbing
Fedora - as in many cases downstream may actually be the culprit
for the problem after all.
If that would not be possible, it would force them to rebuild
all packages and burn rainforests while doing so.... or just
waste Fedoraproject's hours for issues that doesn't belong there.
This probably isn't something that cannot be fixed later, but
while it's on plate....? ;-)
