My experience has been that reporting my own mistakes and misconfiguration on bugzilla simply ends up in a WONTFIX.

For users in this situation, my best advice would be to post to the opensuse forums (forums.opensuse.org). Quite a few people do that already. And theyare advised to open a bug report when that is appropriate.
Exactly. It is a great Forum, with great Volunteer Support, and is Moderated so that the garbage that floods these mail lists tends to be almost totally absent. -- -Gerry Makaro openSUSE Member openSUSE Forum Moderator openSUSE Contributor aka Fraser_Bell on the Forums, OBS, IRC, and mail at openSUSE.org Fraser-Bell on Github -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, email: opensuse-project+owner@opensuse.org

Then, it is Ok to post to the web forum asking if something is a bug or an error, but it is not ok to ask the same thing in the mail list? You mean that there is no Wonderful Volunteer Support on the mail list? :-O -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
