I though we were doing a pretty good job at forwarding Ubuntu bugs upstream, but apparently it looks like you don't appreciate the efforts, makes me wonder if we should bother keeping doing that then > So... stack traces going to distros instead of bugzilla ~= nigh-unusable > GNOME. There you assume than distros don't send back useful informations upstream and than distros are doing no QA. What we are trying to do with bugs about the Ubuntu desktop is to get something useful before forwarding them upstream. I would have no issue to just dump hundred of useless bugs and non-debug backtraces upstream and stop trying getting details for them if you think that would be better > complete stack trace data. But in the current situation (distros don't > have the tools to create the better stack traces, and don't have the Luis, have you read the Ubuntu spec pointed by Ben? A part of it is about getting better backtraces, Martin Pitt already did some good work on it and it's likely we will get automatic debug backtraces when something crash for Ubuntu edgy Cheers, Sebastien Bacher _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
