Private messages and public comments through bugzilla are so far ignored, it seems, so let's try a venue where it's sure to cause a flamewar instead. My apologies for the inconvenience.

Also, robotically filing thousands of bugs and making them say "please" every time isn't going to endear anyone to your cause. So do something like this: "<cat/pkg-version> stabilisation request" > URL: > http://packages.gentoo.org/package/dev-libs/libconfig? arches=linux Is this URL useful to include, or did you just want to abuse every last feature found in pybugz? Wouldn't maintainers already know where to find this kind of information? Who do you think is your audience? > OS: Linux > Status: CONFIRMED > Severity: enhancement Is a stabilisation an enhancement per se? If all stabilisations are enhancements, then why isn't Severity set to Normal instead? (What is an enhanced severity to begin with, Mozilla?) > Priority: Normal This is where you probably wanted to set something similar to Enhancement above, but again you probably shouldn't. Normal stabilisation bugs are normal, not less than normal. > Is it OK to stabilize =dev-libs/libconfig-1.4.9-r1 ? > > If so, please CC all arches which have stable keywords > > for older versions of this package and add STABLEREQ keyword > > to the bug. My e-mail editor is messing up the line endings here, but your messages already include double newlines - on bugzilla web pages as well as in the e-mail it sends, so this is your broken pybugz script again, I reckon? Also, your script does not set the STABLEREQ keyword. People are having to hunt down your robo-stabilisation requests and add it themselves. You should just do it yourself or turn your script off. jer
