There is no category because you should have emailed webmaster.

I'm not sure if you're looking at a cached copy of the page, but the only reference to 
9.1 I see is the 
link to the 9.1 errata.  The 9.1 CD-ROM typeo was fixed a few weeks ago.

Putting a link to MDKSA-2003:020 is completely cosmetic.  That hardly constitutes a 
bug, but I've 
done it.

I also think calling the errata page "badly organized and typo-ridden" is a gross 
exageration.  
There was one typeo which was fixed weeks ago.  Badly organized?  errata.php3 is a 
symlink to 
92errata.php3.  You want a cute little list of links?  Go to 
http://www.mandrakesecure.net/
advisories/ and you'll have a link not only to all the advisories for a particular 
release, but a link to 
their respective errata pages as well.

Firstly, this is about the page in http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/errata.php3 
and there seems to be no category in bugzilla where I could place these bugs. 
 
1) In http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/errata.php3#install it says: 
 
"Remove the floppy and reboot using the Mandrake Linux 9.1 CD1 to do a CD-ROM 
installation." 
 
What does a LM9.1 CD1 have to do with LM9.2 installation. Should this not be 
 
"Remove the floppy and reboot using the Mandrake Linux 9.2 CD1 to do a CD-ROM 
installation."  
 
instead ? Looks like you need an "errata on errata" page !! 
 
2) In http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/errata.php3#webcam  
 
it says: 
 
"Solution: Upgrade to kernel 2.4.22-18mdk in updates (MDKA-2003:020) " 
 
Won't it be nice to put a link in "MDKA-2003:020" to http://
www.mandrakesecure.net/en/advisories/advisory.php?name=MDKA-2003:020 ? 
 
3) http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/errata.php3 is has a link for LM9.1 errata. 
The LM9.1 errata page has a link for LM9.0 errata. 
The LM9.0 errata page has a link for LM8.2 errata. 
The LM8.2 errata page has a link for LM8.1 errata. 
 
Whats the use of these hierarchical and cumbersome arrangement ? 
Why not have one http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/errata.php3 page which will 
list these 5 current links: 
 
Mandrake 9.2 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/92errata.php3 
Mandrake 9.1 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/91errata.php3 
Mandrake 9.0 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/90errata.php3 
Mandrake 8.2 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/82errata.php3 
Mandrake 8.1 Errata http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/81errata.php3 
 
I am sure you realize that a badly organized and typo-ridden errata will only 
make things worse.
