As dilfridge pur jer in CC, I guess that some of jer's changes to bugs were not welcomed by maintainers. One recent example of non-maintainer activity in the package list field is bug 613104, where he just removed the entire package list (and then marked the bug WONTFIX). Also very common is that he changes fully qualified package names (which is the correct syntax per [1]) into fully qualified package atoms (which is the legacy syntax). Bug 616260 is one such example. Best regards, Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html
