I guess I meant "I don't know how it's defined" but
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/UpstreamReport does actually
define it: top 100 by number of open bugs.  So it will vary over time,
and it's also plausible that these are amongst the most interesting
packages in Ubuntu.  It might be interesting to measure the most
popular packages in ppas, but this will do for now.
