[opensuse-factory] Automatic bug reporting tool
Hi all. I just want to ask, why isn´t Apport (http://en.opensuse.org/Apport), or any automatic bug reporting tool, enabled by default? I think, it would by useful for you (as developers) to have it enabled, at least in development versions. Or wouldn´t? Reports via this tool could be more accurate, than obtaining info from users in some cases. If i´m right, Gnome uses bug-budy, but what is for KDE? -- S pozdravom / Best regards, Rasto -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

If you're volunteering, that's great. But having an unmaintained bug reporting tool on default would be bad I guess.

What does it mean 'unmaintained'? I see the packages in Factory, in PDB, maintainer is assigned. What else needs to be done in this regard?

It needs a server to report the stuff too. Or am I confusing things? Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

You mean crashdb.opensuse.org is unmaintained? Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE. Everybody has a plan, until they get hit. - Mike Tyson -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

OK, how about maintaining -> "caring for" then? But I admit I thought the whole thing is not as far as it seems to be. Greetings, Stephan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I don't think we have a crash reporter for GNOME anymore (at least not one turned on by default. -- Kevin "Yeaux" Dupuy openSUSE Member www.twitter.com/KevinDupuy -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

We do have a broken crash reporter for GNOME at the moment. (bug-buddy doesn't work fine) Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
