There's some pros and cons to activating issues for `astropy-helpers`.
@embray as the `astropy-helpers` author (and presumably main maintainer?) should decide.

For developers and very knowledgeable users filing the issue directly against `astropy-helpers` is better because then commits can be attached directly to the issue.
Users with Astropy installation problems will in most cases not be able to figure out if they should file against `astropy` or `astropy-helpers`, even if the docs are really good and clear about that.
So there will in any case be `astropy-helper` issues filed against `astropy` ... maybe simply introducing a label for those would be better than asking users to re-file in `astropy-helpers`?
