No, we don't require our packagers to be programmers, and there many 
packagers which automatically ship all bugs (which are not packaging 
bugs) upstream for the resolution. Such people may have no clue what is 
required for the debugging. Also, how many upstream programs include such 
information in their doucmentation?
