Dear how-can-i-help developers,

Could you consider grouping package deletions (effective or pending) by source
package, so as not to report the same bug many times?

Here, 2 packages (boost1.71 and python3.8) are responsible for about half of the
reported deletions (18 out of 37), and 4 more packages appear 2-3 times each.

	Packages removed from Debian 'testing' (the maintainer might need help):

Would it be possible to present the information like this instead?

Since how-can-i-help seems to already be grouping things by source package name, the necessary information should already be available.


Best,
