Bug Description
<https:/
If a distribution doesn't use Launchpad for packaging, Launchpad shouldn't ask you for the package when reporting a bug about the distribution.
It may save time to fix this bug at the same time as bug 67777.

To post a comment you must log in.
Actually, if you enter any package there that doesn't exist in the distribution, the bug is filed and you get a notice:
"The package 3c5x9utils is not published in Nexenta Operating System; the bug was targeted only to the distribution."
I agree that Launchpad should not offer to the field, if it's going to ignore the content anyway.
