[14:32] <knome> hey, was wondering what the general guideline is for bugs reported against EOL releases
[14:33] <knome> if the bug can't be reproduced with the latest version (but can't be verified if it still exists in the EOL release), what should the status be?
[14:33] <knome> incomplete or won't fix?
[14:33] <knome> or something else?
[14:40] <hggdh> knome: usually we mark it invalid, with a comment that it cannot be reproduced on a current version, and we are closing it because the affected package is EOL-ed
[14:41] <knome> okay, what about the importance?
[14:41] <knome> should it be the importance that the bug had if it existed, or undecided?
[14:41] <hggdh> it is a good approach. But, since the bug is obsoleted, it does not really matter
[14:42] <knome> what is? :)
[14:42] <hggdh> setting the importance :-) -- it is moot, since we will not work on it anymore
[14:42] <knome> hehe, sure
[14:43] <knome> was there a comment-template for those cases somewhere?
[14:43] <hggdh> if you can find, somewhere, a possible fix on a later release, you can close fix released, with the caveat that it is a probable match
[14:43] <hggdh> no, we do not have a template for it. There might be a template answer, though
[14:43] <knome> (also, would be cool to have this information on the wiki - maybe it is there, and i just didn't find it)
[14:43] <knome> oki
[14:43] <hggdh> let me look for it
[14:45] <hggdh> ugh, "waiting for wiki.ubuntu.com"...
[14:45] <knome> hehe
[14:46] <hggdh> knome: correction -- set to incomplete, and ask the OP to check on a newer release
[14:47] <hggdh> knome: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Release_has_reached_EOL
[14:47] <knome> haha, okay
[14:47] <hggdh> also, the page has a series of common responses you can use
[14:48] <knome> bug 407976
[14:48] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 407976 in xfce4-session "xfce4-session crashed with SIGSEGV in malloc()" [Unknown,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/407976
[14:48] <knome> already marked invalid.. ;)
[14:48] <knome> and sent a comment
[14:49] <hggdh> that's OK. Frankly, for a bug that old...chances are we would need a brand new backtrace (so opening a new bug would be better, with apport processing)
[14:49] <knome> yep.
[14:52] <hggdh> and the upstream bug was never looked at... sigh
[14:54] <knome> well it was assigned..
[17:35] <brainwash> can "One Hundred Papercuts" be dropped from the affects list? having it in the list somehow implies that the problem has been assigned to the papercuts project
[17:35] <brainwash> bug 1210898
[17:35] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1210898 in thunar-volman (Ubuntu) "Thunar does not automatically mount removable drives and media" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1210898
