In two years, I probably never used the &quot;RPM Package&quot; as a search
criteria (I don't have any statistics many people use it, my guess
would be a small number); I usually search in the &quot;Comment&quot;s with
&quot;Contains all of the words&quot; or &quot;Contains all of the words/strings&quot;
(not just in mdv bugzilla, but in any bugzilla I use, some of them
enable searching in the bug &quot;Summary&quot;); so you search for &quot;firefox
crash bookmarks&quot; or &quot;firefox crash move tab&quot; or &quot;firefox hang quit&quot;, I
think that's what most users will do as the &quot;RPM Package&quot; is a bit
hidden at the bottom.

IMHO, this is better, because a GTK2+ bug could affect a lot of GTK2+
apps, I don't think it's ideal to list every single affected package
in the &quot;RPM Package&quot; field. The same goes for kdelibs or perl or
python or ffmpeg... etc.
