NAME
massfile - script for massfiling bugs against Ubuntu packages
SYNOPSIS
massfile <path to instructions file> <path to list file>
DESCRIPTION
massfile is a script for massfiling bugs against Ubuntu packages in
Launchpad. It requires an instructions file describing the contents of
the bug report and a list file which lists the packages which the bug
will be filed against.
Templates for both files can be found in /usr/share/doc/ubuntu-dev-
tools/examples.
