This is true.

OTOH, this new metadata doesn't really change the situation here.
Before, we already had build-ids for all the packages "involved" in
the stack trace. And our processing tools already could do the
conversion to package nevras. (They have to have network access to
create a report.) The only thing that changes is *how* this conversion
happens, but for online reports such conversion was always possible.

That said, it *is* strange that abrt prints just one package nevra
in bugzilla reports [1].
