Package: www.debian.org Severity: minor Can the following 3 things be clarified on the website:
* The item in the e-mails below about X-Debbugs-No-Ack & other pseudo-headers. * On https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer there is a Table-of-Contents entry that says: "Recording that you have passed on a bug report". This can sound like "pass" in the Python programming language, i.e., "ignored." Maybe this can be reworded like "Recording that you have notified someone else of a bug report". * On https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting , about 2/3 of the way down, it says "If wish to report" instead of "If you wish to report". Thanks. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: No-Ack pseudo-header didn't seem to work From: [email protected] To: dg1727 <[email protected]> [email protected] <[email protected]> On Fri, 03 Mar 2017, dg1727 wrote: > https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=854326#10 has an > X-Debbugs-No-Ack pseudo-header, but I got an ack e-mail anyway. > > https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting says "the contents of this > header do not matter". The psuedoheader parsing code is a bit different from the header parsing code, and requires that there is a content after the colon. [This limitation doesn't exist for the headers, though.] So... the content doesn't matter, but pseudoheaders need content. -- Don Armstrong https://www.donarmstrong.com
