When you report a bug with bug-buddy, it gets filed in Bugzilla. (See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ ) This makes sure that developers don't lose bugreports. If the status of a bug you filed changes, you will get an e-mail notification of it. For example, if the bug had already been filed then it will be marked DUPLICATE by one of the members of the GNOME bug squad. > Now I keep getting emails -- not only when anything fails, but a lot of > other times, too, it seems to me -- which have each obviously had the > attention of a human being.

The e-mails are meant to inform you of any progress made in fixing the problem that caused the bug. Sometimes, more information will be needed and you will be asked to provide it. You may choose to ignore the request or unsubscribe from the bug if you think the mails are a bother, however this certainly won't help getting the bug fixed. Even if you're not able to provide additional information you can say so in the bug's comment field. This will help with cleaning up incomplete bug reports from the database. regards, -- Reinout van Schouwen _______________________________________________ epiphany-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/epiphany-list
