Hello everybody,

as discussed in [1] and ack'ed in [2] by Paul Wise those people that 
actually "maintain" the "general" package, i.e. some of the subscribers of 
the debian-www mailing list, do in general *not* want users to fill 
reports against the "general" package and instead contact Debian support.

The attached patch implements this.

The differences to the patch provided by Jonathan Nieder in the 
original bug report are:

1. the users are directed to the Debian Support page, that lists a couple
    of different options to get Debian support
2. it's a simple info string displayed and not a prompt, so it's not
    necessary to apply the multiline-patch

Also see bugs #734053 [3] and #755495 [4] that are related to this bug.

Please apply, thanks,
*t
