  Title: better facility to search for bugs
   
  openSUSE.org: Unconfirmed
  Priority
      Requester: Important
   
  Requested by: Elmar Stellnberger (estellnb)
  Partner organization: openSUSE.org
   
Description:
   openSUSE has really no bad bug support. However non-Suse users can
  never enfruit the benefits of openSUSE`s qa because there is no good
  way to search for bugs. This is even a problem for anyone who wants to
  check whether a problem is already reported before reporting it
  himself.
    I believe openSUSE could gain a lot of users by a better bug search.
  Bug reports do often contain solutions to common problems. If bugs are
  findable they will become linked and will thus be found more often by
  Google instead of the standard Ubuntu-threads talking around the hot
  pap.
   
  Discussion:
  #1: Thomas Schmidt (digitaltomm) (2010-11-11 13:20:06) 
  Our bugs are not indexed by google due to the robots.txt of bugzilla.
  novell.com: User-agent: * Allow: /index.cgi Disallow: /
  This prevents indexing of show_bug.cgi. I don't know if this is
  intentional?
   
+ #2: Christian Boltz (cboltz) (2011-02-09 20:47:54) (reply to #1)
+ Open a bugreport against bugzilla and ask ;-)
+ That said: The bugreports are indirectly ;-) available to search
+ engines via the archives of the opensuse-bugs mailinglist. That isn't a
+ perfect solution, but at least better than nothing.
