who reported the $gBug knows why it is being closed.
The use of this command is therefore deprecated.
+<dt><code>package</code> [ <var>packagename</var> ... ]
+
+ <dd>Limits the following commands so that they will only apply to bugs
+ filed against the listed packages. You can list one or more packages. If
+ you don't list any packages, the following commands will apply to all
+ bugs. You're encouraged to use this as a safety feature in case you
+ accidentally use the wrong bug numbers.
+
+ <p>Example usage:</p>
+
+ <pre>
+ package foo
+ reassign 123456 bar
+
+ package bar
+ retitle 123456 bar: bar sucks
+ severity 123456 normal
+
+ package
+ severity 234567 wishlist
+ </pre>
+
+<dt><code>owner</code> <var>bugnumber</var> <var>address</var> | <code>!</code>
+
+ <dd>Sets <var>address</var> to be the "owner" of #<var>bugnumber</var>.
+ The owner of a $gBug claims responsibility for fixing it and will receive
+ all mail regarding it. This is useful to share out work in cases where a
+ package has a team of maintainers.
+
+ <p>If you wish to become the owner of the $gBug yourself, you can use the
+ <code>!</code> shorthand or specify your own email address.</p>
+
+<dt><code>noowner</code> <var>bugnumber</var>
+
+ <dd>Forgets any idea that the $gBug has an owner other than the usual
+ maintainer. If the $gBug had no owner recorded then this will do nothing.
+
+<dt><code>#</code>...
+
+ <dd>One-line comment. The <code>#</code> must be at the start of the line.
+ The text of comments will be included in the acknowledgement sent to the
+ sender and to affected maintainers, so you can use this to document the
+ reasons for your commands.
