Bugzilla Interface Improvements
Hi guys, Do any of you find that Bugzilla's interface is counterintuitive at times? I'm particularly thinking of the following scenario which has just bitten myself and Archaic recently: 1) User submits a new bug. i. Status = UNCONFIRMED ii. Owner = lfs-book@linuxfromscratch.org 2) We naively log into bugzilla and 'Accept' the bug i. Status = ASSIGNED (great!) ii. Owner = lfs-book@linuxfromscratch.org (whoops!) OK, this behaviour is detailed in http://www.faqs.org/docs/bugzilla/faq.html#faq-use-accept but it isn't what I expected, nor apparently what Archaic expected either - we thought it'd assign the bug to the user we logged in as. So now we do: 3) Reassign bug to [EMAIL PROTECTED] i. Status = NEW (ouch!) ii. Owner = [EMAIL PROTECTED] (great!). and finally 4) Accept Bug i. Status = ASSIGNED (great!) ii. Owner = [EMAIL PROTECTED] (great!). So, it's now taken us 4 steps to assign a bug to ourselves! Sorry for the long explanation, I just thought it necessary to point out the pain we've just been through. So, do you guys suffer from the same, or have you got a workaround for this cumbersome workflow?

I added a note to the bugzilla bug in bugzilla about this :) In the meantime, the easiest way around this seems to be to 'Reassign bug to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]' then 'Accept Bug'. That's just two steps instead of the 4 it took earlier on. That works, but I have generally been doing the 'reassign bug' and lately been not bothering with the state. If a name on it, the difference between new and assigned seems to be moot. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

This shows me all the bugs that need fixing that someone hasn't spoken for already, except for the ones that Bruce has spoken for. :-) -- Randy rmlscsi: [GNU ld version 2.15.94.0.2 20041220] [gcc (GCC) 3.4.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.4] [Linux 2.6.10 i686] 20:53:00 up 75 days, 20:26, 2 users, load average: 0.06, 0.26, 0.22 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
