Does this mean reporting a bug will initialize all the packages that
are installed? Will it also access the network and check for
upgrades?
I'm not sure I understand the need to produce a potentially huge list
of completion candidates, when it isn't even clear that the bug is
about some add-on package. Can we be smarter about this?
