| wigs | hello folk | 01:15 |
|---|---|---|
| wigs | sometimes I think that lp "helpers" are more concerned with closing rather than fixing :-/ | 01:16 |
| hggdh | wigs: example? | 01:16 |
| wigs | hggdh: mass marking of bugs as incomplete because they are reported against EOL releases | 01:17 |
| TheLordOfTime | that's valid. | 01:17 |
| wigs | yes | 01:17 |
| TheLordOfTime | wigs, they're marked as incomplete. | 01:17 |
| TheLordOfTime | because: they need confirmation in supported releases | 01:17 |
| wigs | but my particular peeve is for trivial bugs that take all of 5 seconds to confirm | 01:18 |
| TheLordOfTime | otherwise, the bug could be considered "No Longer Valid" | 01:18 |
| wigs | I just like to see more people actually attempt the confirmation themselves (for obviously trivial bugs) rather than just push that on to others | 01:19 |
| hggdh | wigs: once a release goes EOL, a bug on it has to be verified against a non-EOL version. If a bug has already been verified as such, then marking incomplete is wrong | 01:19 |
| hggdh | wigs: well, I sort of agree with you there. But... we have more bugs than helpers. What, then, should be done? | 01:21 |
| wigs | imo, for trivial bugs, leave them | 01:21 |
| wigs | because trivial bugs are often UI quirks that come up in edge cases, etc. and will likely be lost for another more years if the report is just closed | 01:22 |
| hggdh | wigs: but marking incomplete is not closing the bug | 01:22 |
| hggdh | I am confused: you complained about mass marking bugs incomplete, and now are talking about closed bugs | 01:23 |
| wigs | almost equivalent if the original report has long stopped caring | 01:23 |
| wigs | reporter* | 01:23 |
| hggdh | then help us | 01:23 |
| TheLordOfTime | what hggdh said | 01:24 |
| hggdh | again, we are few, and there are a LOT of bugs. We -- or, to be more correct, at least I -- have other things to do. We try to help, but we *need* help | 01:25 |
| wigs | indeed | 01:26 |
| wigs | wigs has focused his efforts on a few packages, but high quality triaging of issues | 01:26 |
| hggdh | wigs: this is the way to go. We cannot save it all, but we can at least do a good job on what we touch. | 01:28 |

| wagafo | Anybody knowledgeable in apport/python to figure out what is going on in bug 985049 ? I'm the reporter but I'd also like to triage this bug some more. | 11:49 |
| ubot2` | Launchpad bug 985049 in apport (Ubuntu) "apport-cli crashed with error in _compile(): nothing to repeat" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/985049 | 11:49 |
| melodie_ | hello | 11:55 |
| === melodie_ is now known as melodie | ||
| jibel | wagafo, this portion of the code crashes because of a specific value of the regex due to the substitution in line replacements.append((re.compile('\\b%s\\b' % s), 'User Name')) | 12:07 |
| jibel | wagafo, it'd be interesting to know what the value of s is. Looking at the code it contains the gecos field of the current user | 12:08 |
| wagafo | jibel, thanks, cant you send me python code to include to print the value of "s"? I don't know pythong... | 12:08 |
| jibel | wagafo, you can get it with getent or in python with python3 -c "import os, pwd; print(pwd.getpwuid(os.getuid())[4])" | 12:09 |
| jibel | this might be sensitive information though | 12:10 |
| wagafo | I tried it and i get my full name plus some numbers | 12:10 |
| jibel | wagafo, is there any special characters like (), |, %, &, ... | 12:13 |
| wagafo | <jibel> Just "Walter Garcia-Fontes" at the beginning, may the hyphen be the problem? I tried your comand at another system where apport does not crash and I get exactly the same, with the hyphen | 12:14 |
| wagafo | jibel, Actually I think I can show what I get, I figure out it's just the phone numbers I input in my user profile, here it is "Walter Garcia-Fontes,20.220,+34935422722,+34934221452," | 12:17 |
| wagafo | jibel, as I said I get exactly the same in another system with exactly the same version of everything and it works, it's just in this system where apport crashes with "nothing to repeat" | 12:19 |
| jibel | wagafo, thanks, I can reproduce it. The problem is the phone number starting with a '+' sign, which is pretty common in a phone number | 12:21 |
| jibel | wagafo, I'll update the bug report | 12:21 |
