Bug#1041373: toot: release notes overlooked

yet you wont receive any updates and instead you spam the debian bug
tracking system with "reports" that are just noise (like this one,
since it's fixed upstream).

if i go in a bakery and scream "my chair broke, i want a new one!" it
serves no one purpose. You need to submit the requests in the right
place for the right people to act on.

yeah which you conveniently omitted to report the big `if` before
hand: "If you file a bug in Debian, don't send a copy to the upstream
software maintainers yourself" -- what we are telling you is to NOT
file these bugs at all in the debian bts, but directly upstream. you
dont like github? it's sucks for you, it doesnt mean we are happy to
accept your dubious quality reports.

If i were the maintainer of this package, i'd bulk close all your
report and invalid and ask the BTS maintainer to temporarily ban you
from submitting more.
