Does anyone have a suggestion? It seems completely and utterly pointless to report a bug when it will only be looked at if it can be reproduced by the developer. If I had _ever_ taken this attitude in my 25+ years as a software engineer, my career would have been very quickly cut short. The mind boggles.
I don't blame you for your frustration. I'm not a programmer, but I have worked with programmers--I'm a hardware engineer. I think the problem is, that when you and your engineering team are all in one place, you can go look at the problem first had. When the developer sees a bug report that he can't duplicate, how is he going to a) fix it, and b) demonstrate that it is fixed? I wish I could suggest a solution, but short of shipping the whole computer with the offending software, I don't see one. --doug -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
