[05:45] <melodie> hi
[05:45] <melodie> there is this bug which is not solved: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-system-tools/+bug/1025094
[05:45] <melodie> and this buddy found a turn around for it:
[05:45] <ubot2`> Launchpad bug 1025094 in gnome-system-tools "Change Advanced User Settings Window is taller than my screen and I can't press 'ok'." [Undecided,Confirmed]
[05:45] <melodie> http://beta.linuxvillage.net/index.php/topic,275.msg1899.html#msg1899
[05:47] <melodie> would it be worth suggesting to patch it with his turn around which means just changing one word : vertical, and replace it for horizontal, in one line of the users.ui file ? Or is it better to wait that someone changes it very seriously (and during this time we can't use it in all screens ?)
[10:08] <freakynl> How do I get someone assigned to a bug - or well - generally get someone to notice it?
[10:13] <hggdh> freakynl: you do not assign other people to a bug, ever. But you can (1) post the bug here (type in 'bug xxxxxx') (2) email one of the devel mailing lists. No matter what, do explain why you think that looking at this bug is more important than looking at any other bug
[10:13] <hggdh> in other words, give reasons of why one should stop and work on your bug
[10:20] <freakynl> hggdh: well, most importantly, it's ignored for 3 months. It's not hugely important (definitely not to me, I can fix stuff manually easily) - but some kind of response would have been appreciated
[10:23] <freakynl> bug 1111852
[10:23] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1111852 in targetcli (Ubuntu) "targetcli bug - buffered fileio mode not saved across reboots" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1111852
[10:23] <freakynl> Even assigning it a state of 'paused because of more important stuff' would have been appreciate. Now it's like nobody ever looks at it, which doesn't raise much confidence for something that's promoted as a server OS
[10:37] <hggdh> freakynl: does this happen on 12.04? What about 13.04?
[10:38] <hggdh> yeah, it will happen on 13.04
[10:38] <hggdh> same version
[10:47] <hggdh> freakynl: I marked it triaged, and added the workaround as shown in the iscsi-target thread; I do not have time to prepare a patch right now, but I will try to get it done as soon as possible. I also pinged the server team about it (but bear in mind that 13.04 is being released, so I would expect people to be quite busy
[10:48] <hggdh> freakynl: also, we have more bugs that people to work on them...

[11:49] <freakynl> hggdh: If you're busy or too loaded on other issues that's fine - my issue is largely with the lack of response, that doesn't raise confidence :). As you already saw the fix is rather simple though :). Fact that 13.04 has the same version is rather worrying too imho, updating kernels and neglecting their userland tools probably isn't advised by anyone... Thanks for the re's :)

[13:45] <hggdh> freakynl: actually, this goes back to Debian, we just import the package from there. We will need to get the fix into Debian as well

[18:17] <melodie> what about using it for a fast fix until it could be worked on a better way ?
[18:17] <melodie> would it be a possible option ?
