| mfisch | I'd like to mark https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/imsniff/+bug/607649 as "Won't Fix". It is a lucid bug that was fixed in maverick. The bug itself is a manpage typo, too low severity to ever fix in lucid. Thoughts? | 03:35 |

| mfisch | Also the severity should be Low or Wishlist, but if it's marked as Wont Fix, perhaps that does not matter | 03:36 |
| mfisch | I'd like to mark https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+bug/856387 as a High severity. nettools functionality is severely impacted by this bug and there are numerous dupes. | 04:55 |

| seb128 | om26er, hi | 12:51 |
| om26er | seb128, hey | 12:52 |
| om26er | seb128, how are you today ? | 12:52 |
| seb128 | om26er, good thanks, how are you? | 12:53 |
| om26er | seb128, i am totally fine | 12:54 |
| seb128 | om26er, this libroffice bug, those users add the infos about the version etc because that's what the bug filing page recommends | 12:56 |
| seb128 | om26er, like use https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+filebug, click on "next" | 12:56 |
| seb128 | "We also need: | 12:56 |
| seb128 | 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu | 12:56 |
| seb128 | 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy pkgname' or by checking in Software Center" | 12:56 |
| seb128 | 3) What you expected to happen | 12:57 |
| seb128 | 4) What happened instead | 12:57 |
| seb128 | " | 12:57 |
| seb128 | is the guideline | 12:57 |
| seb128 | om26er, so rather than complaining to users if you don't like the format you should try to get launchpad fixed ;-) | 12:57 |
| om26er | seb128, I made the description simpler since the issue is so simple to reproduce, you just have to start the application and click on the bottom right corner of the app, all those text were actually getting in the way of understanding the bug | 12:59 |
| om26er | currently its like 60lines bug report it could be made 20 words only and I attempted at that :-D | 13:01 |
| seb128 | om26er, well you pointed to a wiki and wrote "reports stresses first on the steps to reproduce the problem:" | 13:03 |
| seb128 | om26er, which is fair, I'm just pointing that's not what the launchpad bug filing page ask for though | 13:04 |
| seb128 | so you might want to talk to the launchpad guys about getting the guideline tweaked to put the description first and versions next | 13:04 |
| om26er | i will file a bug report for that definitely, that could definitely be improved | 13:05 |
| seb128 | well I'm just pointing why people file bugs this way, that's what launchpad tell them to do, if that's not useful from your side you should aim at getting launchpad instructions sorted | 13:05 |
| seb128 | great | 13:05 |

| Ursinha | bdmurray: hey... launchpad is reporting that lots of bugs are being tagged iso-testing by ubuntuqa bot | 15:25 |
| Ursinha | do you know what's going on? | 15:25 |

| ashams | cdbs, I can't understand what the last line of 100paper cuts mean? https://blueprints.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+spec/other-design-p-papercuts-future | 17:41 |
| ashams | e.g. "[YokoZar] Talk to MPT about a separate database with alternate SC app descriptions: TODO" | 17:41 |
| ikt | mpt is mathew paul thomas | 17:52 |
| ikt | sc I assume is kde sc | 17:52 |
| ikt | wops | 17:52 |
| ikt | probably helps if I read the blueprint | 17:52 |
| ikt | if sc = software centre, I have no idea what it has to do with reviving the papercuts project | 17:55 |
| ashams | ikt, me neither :D | 17:57 |
| timonia | hello ubuntu community. Can anyone help me find and fix my first bug :). I don't have any prior experience and lot of theoretical knowledge :( . By fixing bugs I wish to learn the practical aspects of programming :) | 17:58 |
| ashams | timonia, we're just triagers :) ppl at #ubuntu-motu are your target(I believe:D) best wishes :) | 18:00 |
| timonia | ashams, triagers mean that you people work on a bug together to reproduce it but not fix it? | 18:01 |
| ashams | timonia, Exactly, we try to reproduce and document it so developers can work on it | 18:02 |
| timonia | ashams, ok :) | 18:02 |

| cdbs | ashams, ikt: Its about creating a web database that contains package descriptions | 21:01 |
| cdbs | ashams, ikt: MPT was actually considering making a database so that software center could query package descriptions | 21:02 |
| cdbs | ashams, ikt: because right now many application descriptions in software center are geeky | 21:02 |
| cdbs | and the only way to fix that is to edit the package itself, not very convenient for contributors, and even Debian doesn't like us modifying control files in Ubuntu just because of this | 21:02 |
| cdbs | its a tough problem to explain | 21:03 |
| ashams | cdbs, but how this iis related to 100pcuts ? | 21:08 |
| cdbs | ashams: Well | 21:09 |
| cdbs | ashams: we have had a "fix Software center package descriptions" milestone since Maverick | 21:09 |
| cdbs | in the papercuts project I mean | 21:09 |
| cdbs | so | 21:09 |
| cdbs | this way seems to be a more efficient method to fix things rather than edit files by hand and add to the ubuntu-debian delta difference | 21:10 |
| ashams | ah, I got it | 21:10 |
| ashams | cdbs, can this: http://appnr.com be useful in this? | 21:13 |
| cdbs | ashams: well | 21:14 |
| cdbs | ashams: we don't have control over that service | 21:14 |
| cdbs | and the maintainer of that site can do anything they wish | 21:14 |
| cdbs | so no, it will either be a home-grown service | 21:14 |
| cdbs | or nothing | 21:14 |
| * ashams nods | 21:15 | |
| * penguin42 is a bit confused by this dynamic bugs thing | 23:35 | |
