DrozdHello. Can I report a bug here?08:56
DrozdI don't want to register or anything in Launchpad (seems to be a too much administrative) , just simply report a bug.08:57
maxbDrozd: IRC is not a good place to report bugs, please use Launchpad08:58
DrozdI don't want to create Launchpad account08:58
maxbwhy? its not hard09:00
Drozdmaxb: I know, but I forget passwords immediatly. I had multiple accounts there but always forgot the password bcs. I'm not using Launchpad offten.09:01
icerootDrozd: please use launchpad because the crash-report and other usefull infos are automaticly attached09:01
icerootDrozd: and then use the tool "ubuntu-bug packagename"09:02
Drozdiceroot: no crush report, it's visual bug in display manager09:02
icerootDrozd: please use ubuntu-bug09:02
icerootDrozd: then the correct information are attached (versions, system infos and so on)09:03
maxbLaunchpad is the tool chosen by Ubuntu to manage its bug reports. It's not really a viable option to special-case the bug reporting procedure for people who won't use it.09:04
Drozdiceroot: using ubuntu-bug seems to be a stupid thing bcs. app don't even crash or anything.09:06
icerootDrozd: instead of discussion this here for 5 minutes you should already have a LP account09:06
icerootDrozd: we dont accept bugs report over irc, please respect that09:06
icerootDrozd: and i already told you that ubuntu-bug is doing more then just adding a crash-report09:07
Drozdiceroot: i respect that. and please, could you respect that i don't want to create Launchpad account? Rather please offer me other choice how to report bug.09:07
icerootDrozd: no09:07
iceroot!bug | Drozd09:08
ubot2Drozd: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.09:08
Drozdiceroot: at least, could you please tell me, why there is no other way how to report bug for simple people who just don't want to mess up with system/administrative?09:09
icerootDrozd: because WE have to manage the bugs09:10
icerootDrozd: and our tool for managing bugs is Launchpad09:10
icerootDrozd: maybe some of the devs have a question on the bug so we can use LP to discuss that on the bug, maybe the bug needs to be put upstream, so LP is the way to manage that upstream09:11
icerootDrozd: we dont want 20 tools for managing ubuntu bugs, we want exactly 1 tool for bugs and that is LP. so there is no need to discuss that here, if you dont want to create a LP account then we are sorry that we can not manage your bug09:12
Drozdiceroot: it lost one single thing - simplicity. Let's say, one simple web form with e-mail check will be much faster and you can add that data to LP later...09:12
icerootDrozd: what about "ubuntu-bug packagename" is not simple?09:13
Drozdiceroot: yes, it is, but i highly disagree that it can check visual glitches...09:14
icerootDrozd: its the easiest way for us to manage bugs because the IMPORTANT informations are added automaticly09:14
icerootDrozd: ...09:14
icerootDrozd: as is said!!!! other usefull infos are added too not just crash reports09:14
icerootwhat is so hard to understand about that?09:15
maxbDrozd: in the time you've argued about it, you could have reported the bug already09:15
icerootand now please lets stop this discussion09:15
Drozdok, here is the deal. I will link you to youtube video I made and if you say that ubuntu-bug will catch that error, I will even create another LP account which i will forget password to again.09:16
maxbDrozd: you persist in missing the point09:17
maxbLaunchpad's value here is in collecting and organizing information09:18
icerootDrozd: hopefully you will never forget your YT password09:19
icerootDrozd: are you going to google then and say, hey is there another way to upload youtube vidoes because i dont want to remeber a password?09:19

Drozdiceroot: point is, I use my google account every day. I will create LP account to report one bug and probably never use LP again.09:20
maxbyou are effectively asking for special treatment to report a bug in a way that is less convenient for the people who will work on it09:20
maxbthat seems selfish to me09:20
icerootDrozd: maybe you will use ubuntu one09:20
icerootDrozd: same login as LP09:20
DrozdDrozd: I don't even use Ubuntu One09:21
icerootDrozd: and please let stop this discussion now, we have told you what to do09:21
maxband rather pointless, considering the triviality of the step you object to09:21
icerootso i guess we answered your question09:21
Drozdok, here is the other one: why can't you just look on my bug and tell me, that ubuntu-bug will identify that bug (and not just send my system infos)?09:30
icerootDrozd: are you a troll?09:35
icerootDrozd: how often did i told you what ubuntu-bug is doing?09:36
Drozdiceroot: I've done ubuntu-bug and checked its report and there is nothing which will identify my bug.09:37
icerootDrozd: last time (read it!!) ubuntu-bug packagename  will create a bug on Launchpad, we you can put a title and a description, ubuntu-bug is setting up the package-settings correctly, it will also put informations about your ubuntu-system like the version, language and so on also it will try to look for a crash report and append it too09:38
icerootDrozd: also read09:38
iceroot!bug | Drozd09:38
ubot2Drozd: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.09:38
Drozdiceroot: ok, with ubuntu-bug no need to create LP account?09:42
icerooti am out09:43
icerootlast time (read it!!) ubuntu-bug packagename  will create a bug on Launchpad09:43
icerootso it will create a bug on Launchpad of course with your account....09:43
icerootDrozd: just read what we are writing please09:44
DrozdI'm reading.09:44
icerootwe are always available for help but its a good idea to read what we are saying09:44
DrozdI also read all that bug report page09:44
icerootcreate a LP account, use "ubuntu-bug packagename" put in a title and a description, thats all09:44
iceroottakes maybe 5 minutes09:45
Drozdlets sum it: So if I don't want to create LP account there is NO other way how to report bug?09:46
Drozdyes/no answere is ok for me, i will thank you for your help and leave09:47
icerootDrozd: without LP account you can not create a bug09:54
Drozdiceroot: thank you for your time and help. bye09:54

ldz420I have created a bug report I have used ubuntu-bug package which attached useful information I also created a screenshot. it has a low heat level so I assume that is why no one is interested in looking at it but is there any idea on how to further pursue a resolution?13:38
ldz420I did make a work around which was to downgrade. If anyone comes with any ideas please leave comment in comment field bug#102966513:42
